Tier-One Picatinny, Anschutz 1517

• Action-specific fit: This Tier-One Picatinny rail is made for the Anschutz 1517, giving a correct interface between rifle and optic so the scope sits securely and aligns properly from the start.
• Picatinny compatibility: A full Picatinny rail platform makes it easier to mount a wide range of optics, rings and accessories, which is useful when changing setups for hunting or target use.
• Aluminium construction: The aluminium body keeps weight under control while still providing the rigidity needed for a stable optic mounting surface on a rimfire rifle.
• Precision CNC manufacture: Tier-One machines its rails in one operation on five-axis CNC machinery, which helps maintain consistent tolerances and reduces the alignment errors that can come from multiple re-set machining steps.
• STANAG 4694 standard: The rail is built to exceed the criteria for the STANAG 4694 NATO metric Picatinny update, supporting dependable fit with quality Picatinny-compatible mounts and accessories.

About the Tier-One Picatinny Rails Series

Tier-One Picatinny Rails sit in the company’s precision mounting range as firearm-specific bases for shooters who want a stable, repeatable optic interface rather than a generic one-size-fits-all solution. The series covers a broad spread of action types, including Anschutz 1417 and 1517 as well as many centrefire platforms, so the design focus is on matching the rail closely to the host rifle while keeping the mounting standard familiar and versatile.

A defining feature of the series is the way each rail is machined from round bar stock to the finished part in a single operation on five-axis CNC machinery. In practical terms, that approach supports tight dimensional consistency and helps preserve alignment across the rail. The rails are made from 7075-T6 aluminium, chosen for its combination of strength and low weight, and the series is built to exceed the criteria for the STANAG 4694 NATO metric Picatinny update. Depending on the rifle variant, the range includes 0-, 10- or 20-MOA configurations, allowing the series to serve everything from straightforward hunting setups to rifles that need added elevation bias for longer-range work.

About the Tier-One Picatinny, Anschutz 1517

The Tier-One Picatinny, Anschutz 1517 is a rifle-specific mounting base designed to give the Anschutz 1517 a secure and practical Picatinny interface for scope installation. Its main advantage is not complexity but fit: by matching the rail to the action, Tier-One provides a mounting platform that helps the optic sit consistently and gives rings a properly machined surface to clamp to. That matters for any rifle expected to hold zero reliably, whether it is used for small-game hunting, range practice or precision rimfire shooting.

The rail uses an aluminium construction, which keeps the setup lighter than a steel alternative while still offering the stiffness needed in a scope base. The black finish gives it a subdued appearance that suits both sporting and practical rifle builds. Because it is a true Picatinny rail, it also broadens optic choice: the rifle can accept a wide variety of Picatinny-compatible rings or mounts, making it easier to tailor scope height and overall setup to the shooter and application.

Like the rest of the series, this model benefits from Tier-One’s five-axis CNC manufacturing approach and the dimensional discipline associated with the STANAG 4694 standard. In use, that translates into a rail intended to mount cleanly, interface predictably with quality hardware and provide a dependable foundation for an optic on the Anschutz 1517 platform.

About Tier-One

Tier-One was incorporated in early 2008 and is based in the United Kingdom. The company focuses on precision shooting accessories, with a product range that includes rifle scope mounts, moderators, bipods and related hardware. Its background in precision manufacture is closely tied to the optics-mounting category: Tier-One produces precision scope rings for Zeiss USA and has also made OEM products for Blaser, Sauer, AI and March.

A key part of the brand’s reputation is that it manufactures in-house on its own five-axis CNC machines, allowing close control over tolerances and machining quality. That engineering-led approach is reflected across products such as the company’s Monomount one-piece scope mounting system and its Tactical and Evolution bipod lines. For mounting components like Picatinny rails, Tier-One is best known for combining careful machining, practical rifle-specific fit and materials suited to hard field use.
