Egw Ruger American Short Action 20 Moa$62.99
Availability: In Stock
The EGW Ruger American Short Action 20 MOA scope base gives you a precision Picatinny rail system for your Ruger American short action rifle without the gunsmithing. Designed to drop straight onto your factory scope mount holes, this one-piece mount opens up real flexibility in optics choice and eye relief adjustment—something you can't get locked into fixed factory rings. Whether you're setting up a hunting rifle, a range gun, or working with variable-magnification scopes, a quality Picatinny base is the foundation that lets you dial in the sight picture you actually want.
Built from 6061 T6 extruded aluminum and precision-machined to Mil-Std 1913 specs (±.002"), the EGW base accepts both Picatinny and Weaver rings, so you're not locked into one ring system. The milled center channel keeps weight down without sacrificing rigidity—important when you're balancing a heavy scope on a hunting rifle or shooting from field positions. All the hardware is included: socket head Torx screws and the wrench to install them, plus EGW's recommendation to torque to 20 inch-lbs and use a drop of blue loctite for a permanent, rattle-free fit.
The 20 MOA elevation integrated into this base is a smart choice for long-range hunting and precision rifle work, giving you extra upward adjustment without burning through your scope's internal elevation turret. If you've outgrown your rifle's factory mount or you just want a more versatile setup, this is a no-drill, no-tap upgrade that actually uses your existing holes.

Yes. The EGW base is drilled to fit the factory scope mount holes on Ruger American short action receivers, so installation is straightforward without any gunsmithing.
This mount accepts both Picatinny and Weaver scope rings, giving you flexibility to choose rings that match your setup and budget.
The 20 MOA elevation is built into the base itself, tilting it upward. This gives you extra upward adjustment in your scope's turret for long-range hunting and precision shooting without maxing out the scope's internal elevation range.
The base includes socket head Torx screws and an installation wrench. EGW recommends torquing to 20 inch-lbs and applying a small amount of blue loctite for a permanent, secure fit.
