Remington 700 scope base question
KX500
Member Posts: 733 ✭✭✭✭
I'm putting a Leupold Rifleman on a model 700, 30'06. There is about 1/2 to 3/4 of an inch too much space between the rings with the current bases - Weaver # 35 front & # 36 back. Is there another weaver base that I can replace that # 35 with to move the front scope ring back? Is the #40 the base that I need, or is that a rear base also?
Thanks.
Thanks.

shows a 40A for the front
This extension configuring also be true when using other types of bases, even one piece type bases on the rifleman and 2x7 power shorter scopes on Long action rifles.
