If you run a Ruger American Rifle short action and want to mount a quality optic, the Ruger American Rifle Short Action Picatinny Scope Base Rail with 20 MOA is built exactly for your receiver. This one-piece aluminum rail bolts directly to the factory scope mount holes on your American Rifle action, giving you a solid foundation for any Picatinny or Weaver-compatible scope rings and optics. The 20 MOA built-in angle is ideal for long-range shooting, letting you dial elevation at distance without running out of adjustment on your scope.
Machined from billet aluminum and finished with hardcoat anodizing, this rail is rugged enough for field work and accurate enough for the range. At 6 inches long, it provides ample real estate for most modern scope rings and lets you dial in proper eye relief. Installation is straightforward—four TORX screws and the included T-10 wrench get it mounted in minutes. Made in the USA, this is the kind of no-fuss accessory that lets you spend less time on gunsmithing and more time behind glass.
Whether you're building a hunting rig, setting up a precision rifle for competitive shooting, or just upgrading from the factory setup, a quality scope base matters more than most people realize. A loose or poorly fitted base will send your zero wandering and kill your confidence in the gun. This Ruger-engineered rail eliminates that guesswork—it's made to work with your American Rifle, period.
