A few years ago I saw a need for custom bases when building rifles for my customers. Many times bases are ugly; they do not fit long actions that well and require the customer to get extension rings or something similar to fit short bodied compact or European style scopes. I did not like how mass produced bases looked on rifles, and many did not use quality steel. With these thoughts in mind, I set out to design the perfect base for the custom rifles that I produce.

        From the pictures you can tell that our bases sit low and have a sleek design. I do not compromise on materials and use only the best. I also use only Talley scope rings, which I believe to be the strongest and best-looking ring on the market. When customers compare my bases to others, I am always asked the question,
                                                 “Why are your bases better?”




        Our bases first start out as solid bar stock and are then CNC machined to perfect consistent tolerances. Normal bases consist of 12L14 which has a tensile strength of 78,000 psi and a yield strength of 70,000 psi. 12 L14 also has a machinability rate of 325 SFM (Surface Feet a Minute). While this is good, it is not up to my expectations for creating a solid base for Varmint Guns to the Big Bore Rifles that I produce. For my bases I use Stressproof or 1144 steel. This has a tensile strength of 115,000 psi and a yield strength of 100,00 psi and a machinability rating of 130 SFM. What this boils done to is that my bases are better engineered and better looking. The propriety steel that I use is 30% stronger, costs 20% more and takes over twice as long to machine, since it is that much harder. I stand behind my bases and make sure that fit and finish match your gun.
