Description
If you've been fighting flimsy factory bases or trying to zero through a wobbly dovetail, this Warne Maxima set is the upgrade that quietly fixes the problem. These two-piece bases are precision machined from solid steel, so they give your optic a true, dead-steady platform that holds zero shot after shot. The matte black finish keeps glare down and blends in clean on a rimfire setup.
Built for the Anschutz, Savage Mark II, and 93R17
This set drops right onto Anschutz rifles (all), the Savage Mark II, and the Savage 93R17, and it also covers the Browning T-Bolt. The bases follow the proven Weaver-style design, which is about as versatile and strong a mounting system as you'll find, letting you run a wide range of Weaver-pattern rings. The two-piece layout keeps weight down and gives you flexibility in ring spacing for different scope lengths.
Why the Maxima Base Holds Up
Full width and depth recoil slots are the real workhorse here. They give the recoil key on your rings maximum bearing surface, which is what keeps everything from creeping under repeated shots. The low profile design is another nice touch, since it sits close to the receiver and lets you still use iron sights when the optic comes off. Steel construction means these aren't going to flex or strip out the way lesser bases can.
Mounting Your Maxima Steel Bases
Installation is straightforward. The bases secure with Torx-style T-15 socket cap screws (the 6-48 mounting screws are included), and Warne recommends torquing them to about 25 inch-pounds with a dab of removable thread locker for the best hold. Snug them down evenly, confirm the fit, and you've got a mounting foundation that'll outlast the scope you put on top of it. Designed and made in the USA.

Frequently Asked Questions
What rifles do these Warne Maxima bases fit?
This set is designed for Anschutz rifles (all models), the Savage Mark II, and the Savage 93R17, and it also fits the Browning T-Bolt. These rifles come drilled and tapped from the factory for this mounting pattern. Always confirm your specific receiver matches before ordering.
What kind of rings do I need with these bases?
These are Weaver-style bases, so you'll want Weaver-pattern rings to go with them. Warne recommends pairing them with their own Maxima rings for a matched fit, but any quality Weaver-style ring will work. One thing worth noting is that base heights can vary between brands, so it's best not to mix a Warne base with another brand's base on the same rifle.
Do I need special tools to install the Maxima bases?
The bases mount with Torx-style T-15 socket cap screws, so you'll need a T-15 driver. Warne suggests torquing the screws to around 25 inch-pounds and using a removable thread locker for the best hold. The 6-48 mounting screws come in the box.
Can I still use iron sights with these bases on?
Yes. The low profile design sits close enough to the receiver that it won't block your iron sights when the optic is removed. That makes this a flexible setup if you like to switch between glass and open sights.
