Evolution Gun Works Savage Flat Back Long Action Picatinny Scope Mount 20 MOA - 41402

Precision-engineered for legacy Savage rifles, the Evolution Gun Works Savage Flat Back Long Action Picatinny Scope Mount delivers reliable long-range performance in a durable one-piece design. This 20 MOA rail transforms pre-2003 flat-back receivers into modern precision platforms, providing the extra elevation adjustment needed for extended shots without sacrificing rigidity or compatibility.

Key Features

• 20 MOA built-in cant – Angles the optic downward to unlock additional upward travel in your scope, ideal for dialing beyond 600–800 yards on cartridges like .300 Win Mag or 7mm Rem Mag.
• Full-length Picatinny rail – Accepts any Picatinny or Weaver rings, allowing flexible eye-relief positioning and quick scope changes.
• One-piece 6061 T6 aircraft aluminum construction – Adds structural stiffness to the action while remaining lightweight at just 2 ounces.
• Precision hole spacing – 4.63″ center-to-center mounting holes match factory Savage flat-back long actions for drop-in fit.
• Matte black anodized finish – Corrosion-resistant and low-glare for field use.

Benefits for Shooters

Older Savage flat-back rifles often lack the elevation travel required for long-range work. This mount solves that limitation while eliminating the flex and alignment issues common with two-piece bases. The rigid rail improves shot consistency and lets you run modern optics on classic firearms without custom gunsmithing.

FAQs

How do I confirm my Savage is a flat-back model?

Inspect the rear of the receiver near the bolt handle. A flat, table-like top surface indicates a pre-2003 flat-back action; a rounded, pipe-like profile means it is a newer round-back model that requires a different rail.

Will this work with my Savage Axis or AccuTrigger rifle?

No. The Axis and post-2003 AccuTrigger models use different hole spacing and receiver profiles. Dedicated EGW rails are available for those platforms.

Do I need to use thread locker during installation?

Yes. Apply a small amount of blue Loctite to the screws and torque to 20 in-lbs for secure, vibration-resistant mounting.
