The Leupold BackCountry cross-slot base for Remington 783 short-action rifles (part no. 175971) preserves the receiver’s factory-zero elevation while giving that budget-friendly bolt-action a durable, lightweight optic platform. Leupold machines the 5.9-inch base from 7075-T6 aluminum, and the cross-slot indexing accepts both Picatinny- and Weaver-style rings for secure clamping under recoil. The matte black finish matches common rifle coatings for a discreet optics setup. Among 783-specific scope bases, this BackCountry configuration fits that receiver directly.
