SHOP CASE KNIVESYou’ve spent hours cutting ounces from your pack, hiking deeper into rugged country where the air thins and the margin for error disappears. The light fades, the wind steadies, and across the canyon, a trophy-worthy shot waits. In that moment, every part of your setup matters—and your scope base must perform as flawlessly as your aim. That’s where the Leupold BackCountry 20 MOA Cross-Slot Base for the Browning AB3 Short Action comes in. Built for those who push limits in pursuit of precision, it delivers the stability and confidence needed when opportunity is measured in seconds.
This mount isn’t just another piece of gear—it’s the foundation of accuracy. The BackCountry Cross-Slot Base transforms your rifle into a precision platform by offering a secure, lightweight, and durable link between firearm and optic. Designed to bridge the gap between minimal weight and maximum strength, it ensures your zero stays true whether you’re stalking mule deer through alpine meadows or dialing for a long-range steel target.
Machined from a single block of 7075-T6 aircraft-grade aluminum, the Leupold BackCountry Cross-Slot Base provides the ultimate balance of rigidity and reduced mass. At only 1.75 ounces, it won’t slow you down, yet it stands up to the most punishing recoil and environmental abuse. The integrated 20 MOA cant extends your scope’s elevation range, giving you the extra adjustment needed to confidently engage distant targets without maxing out your turrets. This base was designed for shooters who demand performance at every distance and reliability in every condition.
Its one-piece design enhances alignment and stability, while the cross-slot configuration makes it compatible with both Picatinny and Weaver-style rings. Whether you’re upgrading your Browning AB3 SA for competition, hunting, or precision range work, this base ensures a rock-solid connection that won’t shift under pressure. Every component is crafted, machined, and assembled in the USA to Leupold’s legendary standards of toughness and dependability.
