Bases for Rem. 700 SA
Seekins 20MOA Base on a Remington use .44” for rear height or .29” for front height
McCann Industries is also .44” Rear; .29” Front (they only make a 20MOA base)(steel).

This is the current setup that I have used for 6,500 rounds on a 1998 Rem 700 LTR .308 w/ Mark 4 M1 3.5-10x40mm. This has served me very well and has taken quite a bit of abuse.

I gathered all of this info several years ago and had posted it on another forum, I can no longer find it on that forum now that it changed hands, so I figured that I'd post it on NES to keep it out there and available.
