Description

This is EGW's heavy-duty Picatinny rail built for the Remington 700, 722, and 40x short action receivers. It's machined from a solid block of 7075 T6 aircraft-grade aluminum and finished in a two-stage hardcoat anodizing, so it shrugs off recoil, weather, and years of handling. The full-length cross slots are cut to true Picatinny spec, which means you can slide your rings exactly where you need them for proper eye relief and still have room for a level, a bubble, or other accessories.

Why the 30 MOA Cant Matters on This Rem 700 Rail

The 30 MOA built-in angle tilts the front of your scope down, which forces you to dial up and effectively banks extra elevation for reaching way out there. For long-range work in the 1000 to 1500 yard range, that extra travel keeps you from bottoming out your turret before you get to distance. If most of your shooting lives inside a few hundred yards, a 0 or 20 MOA base is usually the friendlier pick, but if you built this rifle to stretch its legs, 30 MOA is right in the pocket. Just make sure your scope has enough internal elevation to still reach a 100 yard zero.

Fitment and Install on the Remington 700 Short Action

The bolt pattern matches short action Remington 700 rifles like your .223 and .308 builds, along with the 722 and 40x. It also works on several short action rigs from Bergara, CVA, Christensen Arms, and the Ultimate Muzzleloader. Worth noting, this is a Remington 700 pattern rail, so it will not fit a Howa 1500 or Weatherby Vanguard. Both sides are beveled, making it fully ambidextrous.

What You Get With the EGW Short Action Mount

EGW ships this one with multiple screw types so you can match the right hardware to your specific receiver, plus a T-10 bit to get you going. It sits a touch lower than standard mounts and is compatible with both Picatinny and Weaver rings, so most ring setups you already own will drop right on. Made in the USA.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will this EGW rail fit my Remington 700 short action?

Yes. The bolt pattern is cut for short action Remington 700 rifles, such as .223 and .308 chamberings, and it also fits the 722 and 40x short actions. Keep in mind this is a Remington 700 pattern rail and will not fit a Howa 1500 or Weatherby Vanguard.

What does the 30 MOA on this rail do for me?

The 30 MOA built-in angle tilts the scope forward and down, which banks extra upward elevation in your turret for long-range dialing. It's aimed at distance work roughly in the 1000 to 1500 yard range. For shorter distances a 0 or 20 MOA base is often a better match, so pick based on how far you plan to shoot.

Can I still get a 100 yard zero with a 30 MOA base?

In most cases yes, but it depends on how much internal elevation your scope has. A 30 MOA rail eats into your scope's down travel, so a scope with limited adjustment may bottom out before reaching a 100 yard zero. If you're running a quality long-range optic with generous elevation travel, you should be fine.

What rings work with this EGW Picatinny rail?

It's a true Picatinny-spec rail with full-length cross slots, so it accepts both Picatinny and Weaver style scope rings. The slots run the length of the rail, giving you plenty of room to position your rings for correct eye relief.
