Weaver #97 Remington 700 SA One-Piece Scope Base

The Weaver #97 is a one-piece detachable top-mount base made for the Remington 700 short action. It carries a gloss finish rather than the matte black treatment used on most of the newer multi-slot bases in this batch. The single-piece format gives the receiver one continuous base instead of separate front and rear sections.

Receiver fit is the important part of this listing because the #97 is cut for the Remington 700 short-action pattern. Once the base is matched to the rifle, ring selection can be handled separately according to the scope tube and the height needed for clearance. The gloss finish is mainly a visual distinction, but it also makes this model easy to tell apart from matte Weaver bases at a glance.

This base is a straightforward choice for a Remington 700 SA when a traditional one-piece Weaver-style mounting surface is preferred. It is not the same product as the 20 MOA extended base also offered for the Remington 700 SA in this batch, so the two should not be treated as interchangeable versions.
