The Leupold BackCountry mount is built for the hunter counting ounces on a long pack in. It attaches directly to a Browning X-Bolt receiver and accepts any riflescope with a 1-inch maintube, so there's no guessing about fit or fussing with a separate base and ring stack. Each piece is machined from a single block of 7075-T6 aircraft-grade aluminum, the same tough alloy used in aircraft parts, which keeps things featherweight while standing up to hard recoil and rough country.
This is a ringmount, meaning the ring and base are one integrated unit rather than two parts bolted together. That design eliminates the ring-to-base connection, which is one of the most common points of scope shift and failure on traditional setups. You get a milled-in recoil lug and a low-profile keeper screw, plus a reversible front base that gives you extra flexibility for dialing in the right eye relief on your rifle. Less hardware, fewer failure points, more confidence when it counts.
Installation is about as clean as it gets. The two-piece layout keeps the profile of your rifle tidy and lines up correctly with X-Bolt receivers right out of the box. The high ring height gives you added clearance, which comes in handy for larger objective bells and bulkier scope bodies that need room over the barrel. A couple of things worth knowing before you start: the kit uses 6-48 screws, and Leupold calls for torquing the X-Bolt screws to 18 in-lbs, so grab a torque wrench and skip the gun oil on the threads.
The matte black finish knocks down glare and blends with just about any rifle configuration. Like the rest of Leupold's mounting gear, it's made in the USA and backed for life, so the link between your scope and rifle is every bit as dependable as the glass it's holding.
Yes, this ringmount is machined specifically for the Browning X-Bolt receiver and attaches directly to it, including short-action models chambered in .223. There's no separate base to source since the ring and base are integrated into one unit. Just match your scope's tube diameter, which for this model is 1 inch.
This model is built for scopes with a 1-inch maintube. If you're running a 30mm tube scope, you'll want the 30mm version of the BackCountry mount instead. The high ring height here also gives you extra clearance for larger objective bells.
The kit includes six 6-48 x .295" screws and two shorter 6-48 x .255" screws. Leupold recommends torquing the X-Bolt base screws to 18 in-lbs, and you should skip any gun oil on the threads. Double-check that the screws don't extend far enough into the receiver to interfere with the bolt.
The BackCountry integrates the ring and base into one machined piece, which removes the ring-to-base connection where a lot of scope movement and failures happen. The 7075-T6 aluminum construction keeps it among Leupold's lightest and most rugged mounts, which matters when you're carrying your rifle for miles. It also features a milled-in recoil lug and a reversible front base for eye relief flexibility.
