Warne Rug American Rimfire Matte

The Warne Rug American Rimfire Matte scope base is a precision mounting solution engineered for rimfire rifle platforms. This low-profile steel base leverages the proven Weaver mounting standard, one of the most versatile and robust systems in tactical optics mounting. The matte finish minimizes light reflection and glint—a critical consideration for field-deployed rimfire applications where signature control matters.

Designed by Warne Scope Mounts, a manufacturer with deep roots in precision rifle mounting systems, this base accommodates modern quick-detach ring systems while maintaining the low-profile footprint rimfire shooters demand. The full-width recoil slot distributes recoil forces across the base for consistent repeat positioning—essential when mounting high-quality optics on smaller-caliber platforms. At just 0.13 lbs and measuring 6.5 inches in length, the base adds minimal weight while providing the rigid platform necessary for sub-MOA accuracy work at distance.

This product serves precision rimfire competitors, small-game hunters, and training-focused shooters who require repeatability and optical mounting compatibility without sacrifice. Whether deploying optics on a dedicated rimfire match rifle or outfitting a hunting platform, the Warne Rug American Rimfire Matte base integrates seamlessly with existing Weaver-pattern rings. The steel construction and matte finish ensure corrosion resistance and minimal maintenance across seasons of use.

For shooters familiar with the Weaver standard, this base requires no adaptation—direct installation on any rimfire receiver drilled and tapped to Weaver specifications. The low profile preserves sight picture and allows use of backup iron sights or co-witnessed optics configurations common in modern rimfire setups.
