The climb was grueling, the air crisp and thin as the morning sun crested the ridge. Every step brought you closer to that hard-earned vantage point. After miles of silence and focus, the moment arrives—the crosshairs settle, breath slows, and there’s no room for doubt. Out here, reliability isn’t optional. Every piece of your gear must perform flawlessly, and the foundation of that trust begins where your rifle meets your scope. That’s where the Leupold BackCountry Cross-Slot Scope Base for the Winchester 70 Short Action proves its worth.

Built from Leupold’s heritage of precision engineering and unwavering durability, this Cross-Slot Base isn’t just a mounting accessory—it’s the backbone of a reliable shooting system. Machined from 7075-T6 aluminum, one of the strongest alloys available, it delivers outstanding strength at an incredibly light weight. Whether you’re pushing through rugged terrain or braving harsh weather, this base ensures your optics remain secure, stable, and true to zero through every shot and every mile.

The one-piece design maximizes rigidity while minimizing unnecessary weight, striking the perfect balance between performance and efficiency. Its cross-slot configuration gives shooters the freedom to use both Picatinny and Weaver-style rings, offering flexibility for a variety of optic setups. No matter your preferred scope or shooting discipline, this base provides a secure, consistent platform that keeps your accuracy uncompromised.

Engineered with the same commitment to excellence that defines every Leupold product, the BackCountry Cross-Slot Base is designed for shooters who refuse to accept failure as an option. With zero cant (0-MOA), it maintains an even alignment for medium- to long-range precision. The matte finish reduces glare while complementing the classic lines of your Winchester 70 Short Action rifle. Every surface, every cut, and every ounce of this base speaks to Leupold’s dedication to performance and craftsmanship.
