Weaver #to10 Tip Off Base

The Weaver #to10 Tip Off Base is a precision mounting adapter that extends the versatility of .22 tip-off scope rings to rifles lacking factory dovetail receiver cuts. This base bridges the gap between modern sporting rifles and classic .22 caliber rimfire optics systems, allowing shooters to employ proven Weaver tip-off mounts on receivers that would otherwise be incompatible with this design standard.

Engineered for secure, tension-fit installation, the base maintains zero shift and repeatable accuracy through its rigid construction and interference-fit design. At 5.3 inches in length and weighing just 0.06 lbs, it adds minimal mass while providing the necessary mounting interface. The tight mechanical fit eliminates play between base and receiver, a critical requirement for precision rimfire work where consistent sight picture directly translates to group-size performance. This approach avoids permanent modification to the rifle, preserving original receiver geometry and resale value.

This adapter suits shooters working with non-factory dovetailed .22 rifles—ranging from modern semi-automatic platforms to legacy bolt-action receivers—who want to leverage existing tip-off ring inventory rather than purchasing new mounts. It's particularly valuable for precision rimfire competitors, small-game hunters, and ammunition testing enthusiasts who demand repeatable mounting without custom gunsmithing. Weaver's reputation for exacting manufacturing tolerances ensures the base meets the tight dimensional requirements necessary for a proper mechanical fit.
