A precision rifle system is only as good as the scope base connecting your action to your optics. After messing around with budget options, I upgraded to the Nightforce X-Treme Duty Picatinny Rail for my Remington 700 Long Action (LA) builds. I like them so much that I have bought several of these rails for multiple rifles. It has earned a permanent spot on my setup.

Precise Fit: Matches the Remington 700 long action receiver contour seamlessly.

No Screw Shear: The integral recoil lug handles the directional force of recoil rather than letting the mounting screws take the beating.

Cons

Weight: Being solid steel, it adds a bit more weight compared to aluminum alternatives (though it is far more rugged).

Price: It sits at a higher price point than basic consumer rails, though quality justifies the cost for serious shooters. 

The Verdict

The Nightforce X-Treme Duty base is an elite choice for a Remington 700 long action build. If you plan on stretching your rifle's limits out to 1,000 yards and beyond, this rail provides zero flex and total peace of mind.

Nightforce X-Treme Duty Picatinny Rail (Remington 700 Long Action)

As an avid long-range shooter, I have learned that a precision rifle system is only as good as its weakest link. Too often, people spend thousands on a

I received this spring in just a few days. It fits my AR10 very well and works great combined with an hydraulic recoil buffer.

The set function works great! It specify that trigger pull goes down to 13oz in the set function. I measure it and the one that I got is more like 6oz.
Excellent for long range. Very easy to operate.
