MULEPACKHUNTER Report post Posted June 7, 2014 I have been working on sweetening up a couple of Mauser model 2000 rifles and was having an issue finding bases for them, they have never had a scope mounted on them. Anyway after some measuring to see if there was compatible units out there I realized the dimensions didnt match even what they were supposed to be for the model 2000 and also didnt match anything out there. Well easy enough I went with the bases I wanted and was able to get them undrilled so I can put the holes in myself and where they are supposed to be. Now I went looking further and found several of my other guns and friends guns where the accuracy of the mounting holes is subpar. Not only are they not on center of the action but the spreads are off. You can still mount the base but it will bind up and each screw will fight the others, then in some cases they are off center. I will be making adjustments to my bases to allow for the off center and my friends have requested the same for their guns. Just an FYI guys, to me it looks like the bases are pretty good but some actions including high end actions are not perfect as we would like. With some of the very sweet rigs on here this is one more little item that can make the difference shooting way way out there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
