Description

This is Talley's blued steel scope base set made to fit Sako short action rifles, including the I, II, III, L461, L579, S491, M591, and all Model 85 actions (long or short). It ships as a two-piece base machined from solid bar stock, which is a big part of why these hold up as well as they do. The centerline height sits at 0.2 inches, and the inclination is a flat 0 MOA, so you're starting with a clean, neutral foundation for a standard hunting or range setup.

What Makes the 252727 Base Hold Zero

The heart of this base is the double recoil shoulder design. Instead of relying on a single contact point, the two shoulders bite into the ring and immobilize it, so your scope stays put round after round. That matters most on hard-kicking magnum calibers, where a lesser mount will let the optic creep and your zero wander. Talley has been doing this for decades, and these bases are a favorite on classic blued-and-wood Sako rifles for good reason.

Pairing the Sako Short Action Base With Talley Rings

One thing worth knowing up front: this base system works only with Talley rings. You'll need either Talley Fixed Steel Rings or Talley Quick-Detachable Rings to complete the setup. It does not accept standard Weaver-style or Picatinny rings, so plan on grabbing the matching Talley rings in your preferred height and tube diameter. The Fixed rings give you a sleek, vertically split profile with no moving parts, while the QD versions let you pull the scope on and off quickly with minimal zero shift.

Fit and Finish on the 252727

Made in the USA and finished in a matte black blue, this set is checked and rechecked before it ships to make sure the fit to your receiver is right. If you've got a Sako short action and want a mounting foundation that disappears under recoil and keeps your crosshairs where you left them, this is a proven pick.

Frequently Asked Questions

What rifles does the Talley 252727 base fit?

This base is made for Sako short action rifles, including the I, II, III, L461, L579, S491, and M591 actions. It also fits all Sako Model 85 actions, whether long or short. The Roman numeral marking on your barrel is a quick way to confirm the I, II, or III fit.

Can I use standard Weaver or Picatinny rings with this base?

No. The 252727 base is designed to work only with Talley rings, either the Fixed Steel Rings or the Quick-Detachable versions. Standard Weaver-style or Picatinny rings will not fit, so you'll want to grab a matching set of Talley rings in your preferred height and tube size.

Will this base hold zero on a hard-kicking magnum?

That's exactly what it's built for. The double recoil shoulder design immobilizes the ring under severe recoil, which keeps your scope locked in place through heavy magnum loads. The solid bar stock steel construction is a big part of why these mounts have a reputation for staying put.

Does this base have any built-in MOA cant?

No, the 252727 is a flat 0 MOA base with a 0.2 inch centerline height. That gives you a neutral starting point suited to standard hunting and range distances. If you need elevation for long range work, you'd handle that through your scope's internal adjustment or a canted ring setup.
