EAW pivot mount, 26 mm, Remington 710

• Repeatable return to zero: The EAW pivot mount is built so a riflescope can be removed and reattached without shifting point of impact, which is useful when switching between optics or returning the rifle to open-sight use.
• 26 mm ring interface: This version is made for classic 26 mm scope tubes, giving a secure steel mounting solution for traditional European hunting optics that do not use modern 30 mm or 34 mm tubes.
• Fit for Remington 710-family actions: The mount is configured for the Remington 710 platform and compatible models, which simplifies installation on the correct rifle footprint and preserves proper alignment between base and optic.
• All-steel construction: Steel gives the mount the rigidity and wear resistance needed for long-term use, especially on hunting rifles that see repeated removal, transport and field handling.
• Modular EAW system: As part of the EAW pivot-mount system, this mount supports the brand’s practical approach to interchangeable optics, making it easier to adapt one rifle to different hunting or shooting roles.

About the EAW Pivot Mounts Series

EAW Pivot Mounts are one of the company’s best-known mounting systems and have been part of the brand’s range for more than 50 years. The series is designed for common rifles and long guns, with the core idea of giving the shooter a mount that can be removed and reattached while maintaining the rifle’s established zero. That makes the system especially relevant for hunting rifles that may alternate between a day scope, a second optic or the rifle’s original sights.

A defining feature of the series is the adjustable fit of the front and rear mount feet, which supports precise engagement and repeatable positioning. EAW also developed lever-operated variants for break-action firearms, showing that the pivot concept was built as a practical family of solutions rather than a single one-size-fits-all design. Across the series, the emphasis is on mechanical precision, rifle-specific fit and long service life, which is why EAW pivot mounts remain a familiar choice for traditional hunting rifles and shooters who value detachable scope mounting without giving up consistency.

About the EAW pivot mount, 26 mm, Remington 710

The EAW pivot mount, 26 mm, Remington 710 is a rifle-specific steel mounting solution for shooters using a 26 mm scope tube on the Remington 710 platform. It is also compatible with the Remington 715 and Remington 770, making it relevant for owners of these closely related rifles who want a detachable scope setup built around repeatable alignment rather than a permanent fixed mount.

Its main advantage is the combination of the EAW pivot system with an all-steel construction. In practice, that means the scope can be taken off for transport, storage or a change of optic, then reinstalled with the consistency expected from a properly fitted pivot mount. This is particularly useful on hunting rifles where one setup may be preferred for driven game, another for stand hunting, or where access to the rifle’s original sighting arrangement still matters.

The 26 mm ring size makes this version especially suitable for classic European riflescopes, so it fills a role that many modern 30 mm-focused mounts no longer address. Because it is built specifically for the Remington 710-family receiver pattern, the mount prioritises correct fit and stable engagement over universal compromise. For the shooter, that translates into a cleaner installation, dependable scope positioning and a mounting system that supports repeated field use over many seasons.

About EAW

EAW traces its origins to 1919, when Ernst Apel founded the company in Würzburg, Germany. The business developed its first riflescope mounts in 1945, and since 1951 the development and production of riflescope mounts have been its primary focus. In 1923, Ernst Apel acquired Elektro-Dental-Werke Frankfurt and changed the EDW brand to EAW, meaning Ernst Apel Würzburg.

Today, EAW is known for making pivot mounts, slide-on or roll-off mounts, and claw mounts, with its product range centred on precise mechanical scope-mounting solutions for sporting and specialist rifles. The company later moved production from Würzburg to Gerbrunn in 1970, and Ernst Apel GmbH is now headquartered in Eibelstadt, Germany. Alongside mounts, EAW also offers thermal imaging devices, but its reputation in this category is built above all on long-standing expertise in repeatable, rifle-specific mounting systems.
