Blackhawk Extended Multislot Picatinny Base for Remington 700 Long Action Rifle

For serious shooters and hunters utilizing the Remington 700 Long Action rifle, the foundation of precision begins with a rock-solid scope mounting system. The Blackhawk Extended Multislot Picatinny Base for the Remington 700 Long Action is meticulously engineered to provide that critical foundation, unlocking the full potential of your firearm for everything from extended-range target shooting to demanding hunting expeditions. This isn't just another accessory; it's a fundamental upgrade designed to enhance accuracy, expand mounting options, and ensure unwavering reliability under the most challenging conditions.

Are you looking for the best way to mount a large, high-magnification scope on your Remington 700 Long Action without compromising eye relief or interfering with your rifle's action? Do you need a robust, durable base that can withstand heavy recoil and maintain zero consistently? Or perhaps you're seeking a versatile platform that accommodates a wide array of optics and tactical accessories, ensuring future compatibility as your setup evolves? The Blackhawk Extended Multislot Picatinny Base addresses these core concerns with unparalleled engineering and thoughtful design.

Precision Engineering: The Foundation of Unwavering Accuracy

At the heart of the Blackhawk Extended Multislot Picatinny Base lies its uncompromising adherence to MIL-STD 1913 Picatinny specifications. This military standard is the global benchmark for firearm accessory mounting, ensuring universal compatibility and a secure interface for rings and other attachments. What does this mean for you? It means that any scope rings or accessories designed to MIL-STD 1913 Picatinny standards will integrate seamlessly and securely with this base, minimizing any potential for movement, flex, or loss of zero. The precision machining process ensures that every slot and rail dimension is exact, leading to a perfectly aligned scope that maximizes the accuracy potential of your Remington 700 Long Action. This level of precision is paramount for long-range engagements where even minute misalignments can lead to significant point-of-impact shifts.

Beyond basic compatibility, this base is designed with an integrated 20 MOA (Minutes of Angle) cant. For shooters engaging targets at extended distances, a 20 MOA base is a game-changer. It effectively pre-loads your scope's vertical adjustment, allowing you to utilize more of its internal elevation travel for extreme long-range shots. Without a canted base, a shooter might run out of elevation adjustment on their scope when attempting shots beyond typical hunting distances, forcing them to hold over more or limiting their effective range. The 20 MOA cant effectively pushes the optical axis down relative to the bore, giving you crucial extra 'up' adjustment in your scope, making those 500, 800, or even 1000+ yard shots achievable without straining your optics. This feature alone is invaluable for competitive shooters, long-range hunters, and tactical professionals who demand the utmost from their equipment.

Superior Materials and Durability: Built to Endure

When it comes to firearm components, material quality is not a luxury; it's a necessity. The Blackhawk Extended Multislot Picatinny Base is crafted from aerospace-grade 6061-T6 aircraft aluminum. This specific aluminum alloy is renowned for its exceptional strength-to-weight ratio, high resistance to corrosion, and impressive durability. It’s the same material trusted in demanding aerospace applications, ensuring that this scope base can withstand the rigorous recoil of magnum calibers, extreme temperature fluctuations, and the general abuse that comes with field use without deforming or failing. You can trust that this base will hold your zero, shot after shot, season after season.

Further enhancing its resilience, the base undergoes a Type III hard-coat anodized finish. Anodizing is an electrochemical process that converts the metal surface into a durable, corrosion-resistant, an anodic oxide finish. Type III hard-coat anodizing is the most robust form, creating a surface that is significantly harder than the raw aluminum, providing superior resistance to scratches, abrasion, and environmental elements like moisture, dust, and chemicals. This finish not only protects the base from wear and tear but also gives it a non-reflective, matte black appearance that blends seamlessly with most rifle finishes, preventing glare that could give away your position in tactical or hunting scenarios. This meticulous attention to material science ensures the base remains functional and aesthetically pleasing for years of demanding use.

Enhanced Versatility and Mounting Options

One of the standout features of the Blackhawk Extended Multislot Picatinny Base is its intelligent design, which offers an added 1 inch of forward length. This seemingly minor addition provides significant advantages, especially when mounting larger, high-power rifle scopes. Modern optics often feature larger objective lenses and longer tubes, which can present challenges for proper eye relief and clearance over the rifle's action. The extended length of this base allows you to push your scope further forward, providing critical eye relief for comfortable shooting, particularly when using scopes with generous exit pupils or for shooters with specific ergonomic requirements. It also helps in clearing the ejection port, ensuring smooth cartridge cycling without interference from the scope's ocular bell.

Furthermore, this extended length provides additional real estate for mounting a wider array of accessories. Beyond your primary optic, the Picatinny slots offer ample space for mounting supplementary devices such as:

• Mini Red Dot Sights: For quick target acquisition at close ranges, often offset or mounted directly to the scope rings.
• Laser Aiming Devices: For low-light or tactical applications.
• Night Vision or Thermal Adapters: Essential for specialized nocturnal operations.
• Bubble Levels: To ensure your rifle is perfectly level, eliminating cant-induced errors at long ranges.
• Tactical Flashlights: For target illumination or area search.

The multislot design ensures flexibility in ring placement, allowing you to position your scope rings optimally for ideal eye relief and balance, regardless of your scope's tube length or design. This adaptability makes the Blackhawk Extended Multislot Picatinny Base an incredibly versatile platform, ready to evolve with your shooting needs and gear upgrades.

Compatibility: Weaver and Picatinny Rings

A common question among shooters is the difference between Picatinny and Weaver mounting systems and their compatibility. While similar in appearance, Picatinny rails (MIL-STD 1913) feature wider, more consistently spaced slots, allowing for more precise and repeatable mounting. Weaver rails have narrower, less consistently spaced slots. The excellent news for users of the Blackhawk Extended Multislot Picatinny Base is its universal compatibility with both Weaver and Picatinny style rings. This means you are not limited to a specific type of rings you may already own or prefer. Whether you're upgrading from an older setup or investing in new, high-end rings, this base will accommodate them, offering maximum flexibility and cost savings. This design foresight acknowledges the diverse preferences and existing gear collections of shooters, ensuring a hassle-free upgrade path.

Why Choose This USA-Made Base for Your Remington 700 Long Action?

Choosing a USA-made product often comes with the assurance of stringent quality control, superior materials, and ethical manufacturing practices. The Blackhawk Extended Multislot Picatinny Base proudly carries this distinction. This commitment to domestic manufacturing translates directly into a product that meets rigorous performance standards and offers exceptional reliability. When your shot counts, you want components you can trust, and the "Made in USA" label on this Blackhawk base signifies a dedication to quality that discerning shooters appreciate.

This base is specifically designed for the Remington 700 Long Action. This includes popular calibers such as .30-06 Springfield, .270 Winchester, .25-06 Remington, .300 Winchester Magnum, 7mm Remington Magnum, and many others built on the long action receiver. Its precise fit ensures optimal alignment with the rifle's receiver, preventing stress on the scope tube and contributing to long-term accuracy and stability.

When considering a scope base upgrade, ask yourself:

• How crucial is repeatable zero for my shooting discipline?
• Do I need extra elevation for long-range engagements?
• Will I ever want to mount additional accessories like a red dot or night vision?
• Is durability and resistance to harsh environments a priority?
