Rifle Scopes I need a Rem700 s/a rail with 0 moa & 8-40 screws

[slg888]

2 questions pertaining to Picatinny rails....

1. Just as it reads. Anyone have a clue? Tried ordering thru Seekins,but he has none available and may take weeks.

Any info on locating this base would help?????

2. Can a TPS/ EGW base be drilled out from a #6 to a #8 and still work fine?

When do you "need" the base ? Wait for Glen if you can, but if you are in need now a smith can drill the #6 screw base to a #8.

Seekins is worth the wait.......my .02

Needed base's 3 weeks ago. Price is not important, timing is. Like to hear what other's here have been using for Rem 700 base's.

I need 0 moa.

I think JBW#3 may have a better handle on what's in stock than the website.....at least until the new website's avaialble.

I don't jump out of planes with my boltguns, so I've never had any issue with piny #6's......

Exactly. Unless you are trying to correct some off center Rem base screw holes, #6 screws are fine.

Give Jim Pierce a call. He has what you are after and might have one on the shelf.

If you need speed to tide you over I just bought a new rig that had a Millet 0 MOA 1 piece mounted for display. Never shot, never had a scope on it. They sell new for $42.99 on closeout at Midway.........I'd sell it for $25 shipped.....I am mounting a 20 MOA base.
