MDT Picatinny Scope Base, CZ 452, 30 MOA

• 30 MOA incline: adds forward cant to the rail so a riflescope keeps more internal elevation in reserve, which is especially useful when stretching rimfire and small-caliber setups to longer distances.
• Receiver-matched profile: the underside is shaped to sit flush on the action and follow the ejection-port geometry, helping the base fit cleanly and align securely during installation.
• 6061-T6 aluminum construction: keeps weight low while providing the rigidity needed for a stable optic interface, making it a practical choice for both field rifles and range builds.
• Picatinny standard interface: the rail pattern works with a wide range of Picatinny-compatible rings and mounts, giving more flexibility when setting eye relief, ring spacing, and optic choice.
• Hard-anodized black finish: the anodized surface improves wear resistance and helps the base stand up to repeated mounting, handling, and outdoor use.

About the MDT Picatinny Bases Series

MDT Picatinny Bases are built as practical optic-mounting solutions for bolt-action rifles used in hunting, competition, and general target shooting. The series covers a wide range of rifle actions and is offered in 20, 30, 40, and 50 MOA variants, allowing shooters to choose the amount of built-in elevation that best suits their cartridge and intended distance. This makes the series particularly relevant for rifles that need extra scope adjustment for longer-range work.

The design philosophy is straightforward: provide a rigid, repeatable mounting surface without unnecessary bulk. These bases are CNC-machined from 6061-T6 aluminum and finished with Mil-Spec Type II hard anodizing for durability in regular field and range use. They also conform to MIL-STD-1913 and STANAG 4694 rail standards, so they pair easily with a broad selection of Picatinny rings and accessories. A profiled underside helps each base sit flush on the receiver and follow the ejection-port shape, while models that allow it incorporate an integrated recoil lug to better manage recoil forces through the action rather than relying only on screws.

About the MDT Picatinny Scope Base, CZ 452, 30 MOA

The MDT Picatinny Scope Base, CZ 452, 30 MOA is tailored for shooters who want to mount a scope on a CZ 452-pattern action while gaining additional elevation for longer-distance shooting. The defining feature is its 30 MOA inclination, which tilts the optic slightly downward relative to the bore. In practice, that gives the scope more usable upward adjustment, an advantage for rimfire rifles and other setups that are often pushed well beyond their traditional distances.

This base also improves flexibility compared with direct dovetail mounting. By converting the rifle to a Picatinny rail interface, it opens the door to a much wider choice of rings and optic positions, which helps when fitting scopes with different tube lengths, saddle positions, or eye-relief requirements. That added compatibility is useful on rifles that may serve double duty for target shooting, small-game hunting, or training.

Mechanically, the base is made from aluminium and finished in black, giving it a low-profile appearance that matches modern rifle builds while keeping unnecessary weight off the receiver. The MDT rail design is machined to sit flush on the action and follow the receiver geometry, which supports a cleaner fit and more consistent mounting surface. For shooters building a precise rimfire setup, this combination of receiver-specific fit, Picatinny compatibility, and added elevation makes the base a practical upgrade over a standard flat rail.

About MDT

MDT Sporting Goods was established in 2009 and began in Chilliwack, British Columbia, Canada. The company focuses on equipment for target shooting and hunting, with a product range that includes rifle chassis systems, stocks, magazines, bipods, scope bases, scope rings, and related accessories. MDT identifies the TAC21 as its first chassis, and that early focus on precision-rifle platforms still shapes the brand’s direction.

Today, MDT designs, manufactures, and sells components intended to improve rifle ergonomics, modularity, and optic mounting. The company states that its chassis, magazines, and accessories are developed with input from competitive precision shooters, which is reflected in products that emphasize repeatable fit and practical field use. In the mounting category, MDT scope bases are described as CNC-machined from 6061-T6 aluminum and made to MIL-STD-1913 and STANAG 4694 specifications.
