Solid mount - Talley Picatinny Base, Short Action

I prefer this style mount to just mounting rings to the firearm. The wider base more easily accommodates a single piece mount, which is my preferred option, and provides a more secure mounting point. This product works as well as any I have. It mounted on the rifle just as expected, and functions perfectly. My only criticism relates to the length of the rail at the front. I mounted it on my Howa Axiom 1500, and it extends out over the floating barrel by about an inch. This has not caused me any issues yet, but it could easily become entangled on branches or clothing.
