What is the best MOA rail for my Remington 700?

If you're shooting short to medium range, a 0 MOA rail is fine. For long-range shooting, a 20 or 40 MOA rail helps preserve scope elevation adjustment.

Will a short action rail fit my long action Remington 700?

No. Picatinny rails are action-length specific. Be sure to choose a rail that matches your Remington 700’s action length – short or long.

Can I use Weaver rings on a Picatinny rail?

Sometimes. Weaver rings may fit some Picatinny rails, but Picatinny rings are more secure and fully compatible. For best performance, use Picatinny-specific rings.

Are mounting screws included with the rails?

Yes. Most Remington 700 Picatinny rails come with mounting screws and instructions. Always torque to manufacturer specs.

Is installation easy for beginners?

Yes. If your Remington 700 is factory-drilled and tapped (most are), you can install a rail using basic tools and included screws. No gunsmithing is needed.

🧠 FAQs – Remington 700 Picatinny Rails

Q: What’s the difference between a 0, 20, and 40 MOA rail?
A: MOA (Minute of Angle) rails tilt your scope downward to give more vertical adjustment. 0 MOA is flat, while 20 or 40 MOA lets you dial in elevation for long-range shooting.

Q: Can I install a rail on a factory Remington 700?
A: Yes! Most models come pre-drilled for scope bases. Just choose the correct action length and follow install instructions.

Q: Will a Picatinny rail fit any optic mount?
A: Yes. Picatinny rails are the industry standard and work with most modern rings and scope mounts. They're more versatile than Weaver rails.

Q: What are the best rail brands?
A: EGW offers great value and reliability. PRI provides night vision and extended options. Nightforce delivers elite durability and steel construction.

Q: Do I need a gunsmith to install a Picatinny rail?
A: Not usually. As long as your rifle is pre-drilled, you can use hand tools and torque specs for a secure install.
