Substituted one piece base for two piece scope base on Savage 10FP-Wow

kevin, You are correct: the Weaver rail is aluminum. However, it is very well made and I cannot imagine it wearing out during my lifetime.

Best wishes and good luck.

Oh, I understand - it's just that I'm going to be firing a .375 with it - a lot. I just don't trust the QD setup with steel crossbars and aluminum rail in that scenario. I'd be fine with it with a fixed scope on my .30-06.

Tx for the info, I'll keep looking.

Kevin, Isn't the .375 a bit too much gun for woodchucks and prairie dogs?

The steel rail does seem to be most appropriate for something as KICK HAPPY as a .375.

Good luck.

Indeed it is. That's why I need a QD setup in the first place. :)
