The Leupold Standard Two-Piece Steel Base for the Kimber 8400 (part no. 56928) brings the classic rotary dovetail system to Kimber’s refined bolt action. Leupold machines the pair from steel with a windage-adjustable rear ring mount, letting you square the scope mechanically and save the optic’s internal adjustments for fine zeroing. Shim compatibility handles gross elevation without consuming turret travel. It is the traditional, proven approach to scope bases, matched to a rifle worthy of the craftsmanship.

Key Specifications

• The base fits the Kimber 8400 receiver, machined to its specific footprint.

• The system is Leupold’s rotary dovetail, a time-proven interface that locks the front ring under recoil.
• The rear mount is windage-adjustable, squaring the scope mechanically before internal adjustments begin.
• The design is shim-compatible, absorbing gross elevation corrections outside the scope’s turrets.
• The set is two-piece, keeping the 8400’s action open and accessible.
• The elevation is 0 MOA, a neutral baseline for sporting zeros.
• The finish is matte black, matching the working end of a hunting rifle.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the advantage of a windage-adjustable rear base? It lets you center the scope mechanically over the bore, preserving the optic’s full internal windage range for real corrections rather than mounting error.

What rings do rotary dovetail bases use? Leupold Standard (rotary dovetail) rings; cross-slot Weaver or Picatinny rings will not interface with this system.
