EAW Roll-off Mount Base for Sako 85 M

• Rifle-specific fit: Made for the Sako 85 M, this base gives the roll-off mount system a correct mechanical interface to the action, which helps maintain proper alignment and a secure foundation for the optic.
• EAW Ø 7 mm interface: Compatibility with the EAW Ø 7 mm Interface keeps the mount within EAW’s modular system, making it easier to pair the base with the correct upper components for a clean, repeatable setup.
• 0 MOA inclination: The 0 MOA configuration suits general hunting and sporting rifle setups where a neutral mounting angle is preferred, keeping scope mounting straightforward and uncomplicated.
• Low-profile KR 0.0 mm extension: With KR 0.0 mm, the base stays close to the rifle’s original geometry, helping preserve balanced handling and avoiding unnecessary forward or rearward offset.
• Made in Germany: Built by EAW in Germany, this mount base reflects the brand’s long-standing focus on precision mounting components, with the consistency and machining quality expected for repeatable optic installation.

About the EAW Roll-off Mounts Series

EAW Roll-off Mounts are positioned as a more economical alternative to the company’s pivot mounts, aimed at shooters who want a practical detachable mounting system for lighter firearm setups. The series is built around the idea that an optic can be removed and reattached when needed, which is useful for transport, storage, maintenance, or switching between sighting arrangements. Within the range, EAW offers both one-piece and two-piece designs, along with versions for different rifle and rail interfaces.

The series is commonly associated with air rifles, small-calibre shotguns, and rifles that use integrated cylindrical or conical dovetails, although the family also includes variants for Picatinny-based installations. Some models are intended for fixed installation, while others use lever-lock arrangements for repeatable attachment. What distinguishes the Roll-off line is its place within EAW’s modular mounting philosophy: the system gives shooters a simpler route into detachable scope mounting while retaining the precise fit and model-specific approach for which the brand is known.

About the EAW Roll-off Mount Base for Sako 85 M

The EAW Roll-off Mount Base for Sako 85 M is a rifle-specific lower mounting component designed to adapt the Sako 85 M action to EAW’s roll-off mounting system. Its role is straightforward but important: it provides the correctly shaped foundation on the rifle so that compatible upper mount components can be installed with proper fit and support. For a mounting system, that precise interface matters because the base is the part that establishes alignment between rifle and optic.

This version uses the EAW Ø 7 mm interface, which places it within the company’s established modular ecosystem. In practice, that helps when building a complete setup around matching EAW upper parts rather than relying on generic solutions. The 0 MOA inclination makes it especially suitable for standard hunting and sporting applications where a neutral mounting angle is preferred. It keeps the installation simple and avoids adding cant that may be unnecessary on rifles used at ordinary field distances.

With KR 0.0 mm extension, the base remains close to the rifle’s original geometry instead of introducing extra offset. That helps preserve natural balance and keeps the optic position dependent on the chosen upper mount rather than on additional extension built into the base itself. As a Made in Germany EAW component, it is intended for shooters who want a clean, model-specific mounting solution for a Sako 85 M rifle using the EAW roll-off platform.

About EAW

EAW traces its origins to 1919, when Ernst Apel founded the company in Würzburg, Germany. The brand name came into use after Ernst Apel acquired Elektro-Dental-Werke Frankfurt in 1923 and changed the EDW name to EAW, meaning Ernst Apel Würzburg. The company produced its first riflescope mounts in 1945, and since 1951 the development and production of riflescope mounts have been its main focus.

Today, EAW is known for pivot, slide-on or roll-off, and claw mounts for sporting and hunting rifles, alongside related optical mounting solutions. The company later moved production from Würzburg to Gerbrunn in 1970 and is now headquartered in Eibelstadt, Germany. In addition to mounts, EAW also offers thermal imaging cameras, showing that its expertise extends across both optic mounting and hunting optics equipment.
