The popularity of scout rifles is growing, and supported by the fact that Ruger®, Savage®, and Steyr® currently make bolt action scout rifles. Now you can add a scout mount to the best-selling bolt action rifle in US history, the Remington® Model 700. Now you can set up your favorite bolt-action rifle as a fast-handling scout rifle, capable of mounting a wide variety of modern sight systems and tactical accessories.

This innovative scout mount will fit any Remington® Model 700 ADL or BDL that has a standard weight barrel with a rear sight ramp held on with two 6-48 screws. This is the most common barrel profile found on the Model 700, and may be found in any caliber from .17 up to .30. The length of action does not matter. The installation is simple and usually accomplished in under 10-minutes with few tools. This mount weighs only 6.6 ozs, and is finished in a low-reflective, flat black anodizing.

The rugged mount centers directly over the bore and is machined from extruded 6061T6 aluminum, and then anodized with a flat black finish. The full-length Picatinny rail will accommodate long eye relief scopes or projected dot sights.

Like all Mini-Scout-Mounts™, this model accepts Tactical Light Mount Kits for quick and secure mounting of tactical flashlights, laser sights and other accessories. It will also accept the new Detachable Sling Mount Kit, or Tactical Sling Mount Adapter for a quick and solid sling attachment point.

• Weight: 6.6 ounces.
• Length: 11.0 inches.

 

 

 

Installation Guide

The barrel MUST be drilled and tapped for the rear sight ramp.  These holes are used to index the mount correctly on the barrel.

The mount will work with all wood or synthetic stocks, but will require some inletting to clear the barrel clamp.  This inletting is not visible if done carefully.
