EGW Mauser 98 Large Ring 0 MOA Picatinny Rail, 20 MOA

• 20 MOA built-in cant: The rail adds forward elevation to preserve more scope adjustment for longer distances, making it a practical choice for rifles set up beyond standard hunting ranges.
• One-piece Picatinny platform: Full-length cross slots give broad freedom in ring placement, helping with eye relief, scope balance and compatibility with different optic sizes.
• 6061-T6 aluminum construction: The rail keeps weight low while providing the rigidity needed for a stable optic mounting surface on a Mauser 98 large ring action.
• Matte black anodized finish: The hard-wearing surface helps resist handling wear and corrosion while keeping reflections low on a field or range rifle.
• Center relief channel: The lengthwise valley trims unnecessary mass and can help reduce interference with factory iron sights on suitable rifle setups.

About the EGW Picatinny Rails Series

EGW Picatinny Rails are built as one-piece optic mounting platforms for shooters who want a straightforward way to fit modern scope rings and optics to classic rifle actions. In EGW’s lineup, this series focuses on practical, rifle-specific rails that simplify scope installation while keeping the mounting surface consistent from front to rear. The family is known for being machined from 6061-T6 aluminum, which keeps weight under control without giving up the stiffness needed for dependable optic support.

A defining feature of the series is the full-length Picatinny slot pattern, which gives more freedom to position rings for proper eye relief and scope tube clearance. EGW also uses a center valley design, originally intended to help accommodate backup iron sights while also removing excess material from the rail. Across the series, different elevation options are offered to suit different shooting distances, making these rails relevant for general hunting rifles as well as more specialized long-range setups. The result is a mounting family aimed at shooters who value fit-specific design, low weight and flexible optic placement.

About the EGW Mauser 98 Large Ring 0 MOA Picatinny Rail, 20 MOA

The EGW Mauser 98 Large Ring 20 MOA Picatinny Rail is designed for shooters who want to mount a modern riflescope on a Mauser 98 large ring action while gaining the extra elevation needed for longer-distance zeroing and hold correction. The integrated 20 MOA incline tilts the optic slightly forward, which helps preserve more of the scope’s internal elevation travel for distant targets. In practice, that makes this rail especially useful on rifles intended for extended-range target work or hunting setups that may be stretched beyond ordinary zero distances.

The rail uses a one-piece Picatinny layout, so ring spacing is not limited to a fixed front-and-rear base arrangement. That gives more flexibility when fitting scopes with different tube lengths, turret positions or eye relief requirements. Its 169.00 mm overall length provides a generous mounting surface without adding unnecessary bulk, while the aluminum body keeps the setup lighter than a comparable steel rail.

EGW machines this model from 6061-T6 aluminum and finishes it in matte black anodizing for everyday durability and a subdued appearance. The center channel reduces excess material and contributes to a cleaner, lighter design. For a Mauser-pattern rifle that needs a stable optic interface and the geometry to support longer-range shooting, this rail offers a practical upgrade over traditional two-piece bases.

About EGW

Evolution Gun Works was founded by George Smith in 1991 and began as a gunsmithing shop in Doylestown, Pennsylvania. The company later grew into a specialist manufacturer of firearm parts and accessories and is now based in Quakertown, Pennsylvania, United States. EGW is particularly well known for scope mounts, scope rings and red dot mounting solutions, alongside parts for 1911 pistols, AR platforms and bolt-action rifles.

That background matters in the optics-mounting category because EGW’s product range is built around practical fitment for specific firearms rather than generic hardware. Its catalog covers rails, bases and related components for a wide variety of rifle and pistol applications, giving the brand a strong reputation among shooters looking for American-made mounting parts with application-specific dimensions and straightforward installation.
