Picatinny rail consists of slots with 5.23 mm spaces between one another, which means that it can be used across its entire length. It is simple to mount and interchangeable – if something is made for a Picatinny rail, it will fit regardless of the manufacturer or manufacturing date. It is affordable, resilient and reliable – this is why it so commonly used by professionals and military. Because of all its great qualities, Picatinny rail has been dominating the rail market in the recent years.
Picatinny is a big step forward from the Weaver standard. Weaver has a few predesignated slots while Picatinny has slots all over its surface, allowing the device to be mounted wherever the user finds it fitting. Weaver's slot is 3.8 mm wide, which is why all mounts made for Picatinny will also fit on a Weaver rail while those made for Weaver will not fit on a Picatinny rail. This is one of the main reasons why Picatinny is a far better mounting solution.
Contessa is an Italian company, famous for producing aesthetically appealling mounts with nice finish. The tolerances of the produced pieces are very tight – there are no deviations, the mounts are very carefully machined. Contessa's Picatinny rails are made from steel and come with their unique screws which fit nicely into the rail. The screws have a huge contact surface and a bigger head than screws of other mount manufacturers, while the thread is the same. Contessa's Picatinny rails, made in Italy, are available in both 0 MOA and 20 MOA versions. Throughout the middle of the rail, there is a canal so that the rail can be used together with rifle's sights.
Sauer & Sohn was founded in 1751 in Germany. It is the second oldest manufacturer of firearms in the world. One of their most known firearms is Sauer 38H, an advanced semiautomatic pistol that was produced in great numbers – it featured a cocking/decocking lever. They partnered with Swiss company SIG in 1976 – a new line of semi-automatic pistols was launched, branded SIG Sauer.
Sauer 202 Medium, also known as Sauer 202 Standard, is a bolt-action rifle that is chambered for the following calibers: .22-250 Rem., .243 Win., .25-06 Rem., 6,5x55, 6,5x57, .270 Win., 7x64, .308 Win., .30-06, 8x57IS and 9.3x62.

The ejection port is located on the right side of the rifle. Bolt runs smoothly and operates silently. The buyer can choose to have the receiver manufactured from aluminium or steel.
Sauer 202 Medium (Standard) has a similar action as Sauer 202 Magnum. The radiuses of the mounting surfaces are the same but there is a difference in B distance (see the picture below). This is why two-piece mounts made for Sauer 202 Medium will fit Sauer 202 Magnum while one-piece mounts made for Sauer 202 Medium will not fit Sauer 202 Magnum.
Sauer 202 Medium (Standard) and Sauer 200 have an action of same dimensions, which is why they share the same mounts.

Remove all the stains (grease, oil etc.) from the rifle's receiver with a cleaning fluid (acetone). Once the surface is clean and dry, check whether the screws match the rail and the holes on the receiver. Make sure that the Picatinny rail is compatible with the the rifle by inspecting the mounting holes on both. Before mounting the rail permanently, apply a minimal amount of thread-locking fluid 278 or 648 on screws and contact surfaces. Be careful not to get the fluid in or near the mounting holes. Carefully clean the remaining excess fluid around the rail with a cleaning fluid. Using a torque driver, screw the screws appropriately (up to 2.2 Nm) – do not overtighten.
The product has a warranty period of 30 years.
