Could someone direct me to a 20 MOA base that will work with the Savage Stealth short action? Seems there is a different one for Stealth. There is lots of confusing info available on the net.

Should be any base that is compatible with a model 10 round back action.

the stealth has 8-40 screws. I probably have some bases/screws in my gun room that would work. Can check if you want. Have a few stealth actions on hand that I can verify with as well..
I am assuming that this would be what I need to order. It shows a bolt option.

that would work
i just went through a whole debacle with this. whan you need is specific to the stealth (and also my 110 tactical). Screw spacing is the same but the receivers are tapped for oversize 8-40 screws.
Warne makes one (M666-20-8)
So does EGW (You have to buy the HD steel one and have them drill it out for the proper screws)
And badger.
be advised that if you simpply buy a rail that's made for the 6-46 screws and drill it out (like EGW does) then use 8-40 screws, the shoulder of the screws will be different and may not seat properly, this lead me to buying the Warne M666-20-8. The price was right too (They're about $111 compare to others that are $130+)

The Stealth Evo 223 comes with a 20MOA base from factory. I took it off when new and it was labeled on the bottom. I can't remember the brand ..Seems like MDT or Drake?. But since it is Savage factory you should be able to just get the Evo base from savage.
aren't the rails they come with 6061 aluminum?Quote:

Standard rifling on the 110 TacticalsQuote:
