The #36 Top Mount Base from Weaver (Weaver part no. 48036) is built for the Remington 700/Howa 1500, machined from aluminum alloy and finished in black gloss for a durable, corrosion-resistant surface. It’s a 2-piece design that bolts to the receiver’s factory screw holes, adding a Weaver-pattern rail without any gunsmithing. Weaver holds tight machining tolerances on every base so it seats consistently and gives scope rings maximum contact area to grip. If your Remington 700/Howa 1500 needs a solid, no-drill path to mounting a scope, this base is built for exactly that job.
