I purchased a 2018 Savage 220 Bolt-Action shotgun with accutrigger. I bought the correct Warne medium height rings and 2 piece mounts however the scope is too short for this set up to work.
I do not like 1 piece mounts, I think they look gaudy, are more material than necessary, and do not want the mounts to hang over the chamber and affect loading or unloading of the shotgun rounds.
I attempted to mount a Leupold VX-Freedom 4-12x40 to it and everything worked except the distance between the 2 mounts was too far. The front rings would have been up on the bell housing of the scope and not the tube.
I know that the Warne mounts for this particular shotgun use Weaver style base. I looked at Weaver themselves and they look cheap and are aluminum. They do not make steel ones for this gun.
I'm looking for a quality, extended 2 piece Weaver style base set for this rifle.
Does anyone make this?
***Also, is this considered a 'short action' model?
