Savage 11 scope rail musings...

[Calum]

Yesterday I discovered that a weaver multi slot scope rail for a Savage 111 (long action) will not fit the Savage 11 (short action).

So now should I return the base to the store or keep it and buy a 111 later to go with it?

Also the weaver website isn't helping me much.
Has anyone seen or heard of them offering a multi slot scope rail for the 11?

are you talking about a picatinny rail? If you are then I have one sitting here not being used. PM me if your interested

I have a multi slot rail for the Savage Axis. If you can find out from Savage if the screw spacing is the same it would likely for the 11 action.

IIRC it's a different screw spacing again as apparent all Axis are long actions regardless of cartridge types. I guess they save money only having to build one receiver length.

You could always buy the rail and drill the holes where they need to be.

Sell it on EE, as there must be a Savage LA owner, on here, that would love to have it
