We recommend measuring the hole spacing in your receiver to confirm it matches with the dimensions we have published.

Why is the EGW scope mount the best for my Ruger 10/22?

Picatinny cross slots run the full length of the rail, which gives the shooter flexibility when mounting scope rings and other accessories. The channel in the center reduces the overall mass of the mount. Also, in many cases, it will not obstruct usage of factory iron sights. Our one-piece scope mounts are the obvious choice for hunters and tactical shooters alike.

We machine these in our shop using one of our machining centers. After machining, the mounts are tumbled, sand blasted, and Type II anodized for long lasting durability.

Should I use loctite when installing my picatinny scope mount?

We always recommend a drip of blue loctite or thread locker when installing your scope mounts (loctite is available through our website and is sold separately).

Do I need to torque my hardware when installing my picatinny scope mount?

We always recommend torquing the mounting hardware to 20 in/lbs unless otherwise specified by the manufacturer of the firearm.
