The Weaver Extended Multi-Slot Base, Savage 10/11/12/14/16 Short Action, 20 MOA (Weaver part no. 99492) is an extended multi-slot scope base with a 20 MOA slope for Savage 10/11/12/14/16 short-action rifles. It is machined from aircraft-grade 6061-T6 aluminum and finished in Type-III hard coat anodizing, a combination built for strength and durability under recoil. The base adds an extra inch of forward length for mounting flexibility, and its multi-slot top accepts both Picatinny and Weaver-style rings. Weaver builds it in the USA, which suits a hunting or range rifle that needs a dependable optic platform.

Key Specifications

• It is made for the Savage 10, 11, 12, 14 and 16 short actions with AccuTrigger (post-2003) and 6-48 screws, the fit Weaver lists for this part number.
• The extended design adds an extra inch of forward length, which gives you more room to position the scope.
• The base carries a 20 MOA slope, built-in elevation that leaves the scope more adjustment travel for long-range holds.
• It uses 6-48 base screws, the thread size Weaver lists for the AccuTrigger-era Savage short actions.
• Construction is aircraft-grade 6061-T6 aluminum, a strong, lightweight alloy that stands up to repeated recoil.
• The finish is Type-III hard coat anodizing, chosen for durability on a base that carries the optic through every shot.
• The multi-slot top accepts Picatinny and Weaver-style rings, so you can choose rings by diameter and height.
• It is made in the USA by Weaver, with the fit and finish expected from a long-established optics-mount maker.
• Base screws follow Weaver’s torque guidance of 15 inch-pounds for 6-48 screws and 18 inch-pounds for 8-40 screws, so a correct torque wrench setting keeps the base from shifting.
