The Weaver Top Mount Base #46 is a one-piece aluminum scope base for the Ruger American in a black gloss finish (Weaver part no. 48046). Weaver lists the #46 for the Ruger American short action and long action, along with a number of Browning, Savage and Marlin models, and machines each base to tight tolerances for a custom fit. A one-piece base gives the rings one flat platform, which keeps the scope aligned from the first mount. For a Ruger American owner mounting a new scope, it is a direct, no-guesswork base.
