The Leupold two-piece windage base for custom gunmaker installations (part no. 50033) is built for gunsmiths fitting a scope to a receiver that doesn’t match a standard off-the-shelf base, giving them a windage-adjustable starting point to machine and fit. Leupold makes this base from steel with a gloss black finish, and the rear ring’s windage adjustment screws preserve the scope’s own internal adjustments for fine zeroing. Shims correct gross elevation, reserving the scope’s turret for ballistic compensation. Among gunsmith-oriented scope bases, this custom windage configuration is built for fitted, one-off installations.
