The Talley Picatinny Base for the Howa 1500 and Weatherby Vanguard short action (brand part no. PSM252150) adds 20 MOA of built-in elevation, giving long-range shooters extra downrange correction before they run out of scope adjustment. Talley machines this one-piece rail from aluminum and finishes it in black matte, keeping the whole package to just 4 ounces so it adds negligible weight to the rifle. It mounts directly to the receiver using the action’s factory screw holes, spanning the short-action footprint at roughly 8.8 inches long. The base ships without rings, so shooters can choose their own ring height and style to match their scope.
