Re: Best value 20 MOA base for Remington?
Weaver Tactical Picatinny 20 MOA base. I have used several of them. They are good quality and a great value.
However on top end rifles, Seekins is my suggestion.

+1. I was pleasantly surprised at the level of quality of the Weaver Tactical base. Also has a recoil lug unlike a lot of other cheap bases.

NO and Yes
Try a EGW heavy duty base, about $60.00. Dang nice for the coin.
The $100.00 badger won't make your gun shoot any better!!

I started with an EGW and returned it immediately when I found it DID NOT have the integral recoil lug. A feature that costs zero extra to include is worth the added expense, and not worth going with a lower cost alternative.
I returned it and bought two Badgers.
If the Weaver has that...I would have given it a fair test, but I won't take the EGW, for that specific reason.

Re: Best value 20 MOA base for Remington?
The Weaver does have a recoil lug and is better finished than the EGW. I have an EGW on my 40XB. I won't buy another while Weaver Picatinny Rails are available.

Re: Best value 20 MOA base for Remington?
Here is another vote for the Weaver. I have used many different scope rails, including Badger, Ferrell, Seekins, and EGW. To be very honest, I much prefer Seekins rails over any other, but the Weaver is totally top notch. The 20MOA Weaver Tactical is what I am running now.
It does have the recoil lug, the fit and finish were excellent, the rail slots are spot on with my digital calipers, and the rail is solid across the top. I prefer the solid top to the valley style, so it allows for proper placement of my level.
I will be giving my money for rails to Weaver from now on...

TPS if you can find them in stock. Recoil lug, etc. etc. etc. Good price too in either steel or aluminum.

Re: Best value 20 MOA base for Remington?
The description on the Weaver website leaves a little to be desired. I'm assuming they're all 20 MOA, but it doesn't say so. I picked up a multi slot base http://www.weaveroptics.com/rings_bases/bases/multi-slot_base/
Hoping it's 20 MOA and I didn't screw it up.

Re: Best value 20 MOA base for Remington?
The Weaver can be purchased both ways, if it doesn't say 20 moa on the package, it's not.

Re: Best value 20 MOA base for Remington?
I just gave thirty dollars for my weaver 20 moa base. I dont know how you can beat that for the quality. Mounted it to savage 10fcp with Vortex pst 6-24
