Getting a modern scope onto an old military Mauser has always been a bit of a puzzle, and this EGW rail solves it cleanly. Built specifically for large ring Mauser 98 receivers with the three-hole pattern, it replaces that mounting guesswork with a single run of full-length Picatinny rail. The 20 MOA forward cant tilts your optic down a touch, which buys you more elevation travel when you want to stretch things out past a few hundred yards.
The build quality is where EGW earns its reputation. Each rail is machined from domestic 6061 T6 extruded aluminum in one of their USA Fadal machining centers, then tumbled, sand blasted, and Type II anodized in matte black for a finish that holds up to years of handling and weather. A milled channel down the center trims the weight to right around 2 ounces, and the design is ambidextrous with a bevel on both sides. In many cases it won't block your factory iron sights either, which is a nice bonus if you like keeping the originals in play.
This is the Military version, made for Mausers that still wear the stripper clip hump on the receiver. The center spread measures 4.275 inches between the two middle holes, and overall length comes in at 6.670 inches. It is worth measuring your receiver hole spacing before ordering to confirm the match, since surplus actions vary. Note that it does not fit the 3000 L.
Since it's a true MIL-STD 1913 Picatinny base, you can mount any Picatinny or Weaver rings you like, which opens the door to everything from traditional hunting scopes to red dots and modern optics built for AR platforms. The full-length cross slots give you plenty of room to dial in eye relief and ring placement. EGW suggests torquing the included screws to 20 inch pounds with a drop of blue thread locker for a rock-solid hold.

The 20 MOA forward slope tilts your scope slightly downward, which gives you extra elevation adjustment for shooting at longer ranges. EGW generally recommends 20 MOA for distances in the 500 to 1000 yard window, and suggests zeroing at 200 yards with this cant. If you mostly shoot inside 500 yards, a 0 MOA base is the simpler choice.
No, rings are not included. It ships with the mounting screws and a T-10 Torx bit, but you'll need to add your own Picatinny or Weaver rings to hold the optic. Since it's a standard MIL-STD 1913 base, you have a wide range of ring options to choose from.
In many cases, yes. The rail is designed so it often won't obstruct the original iron sights, though this can vary depending on your specific rifle and sight setup. It's a nice touch for anyone who wants to keep the irons as a backup.
