Elevate your rifle’s long-range performance with the Talley Scope Mount/Ring Combo 850700SM, a premium black anodized mounting solution engineered for Remington 700, 721, 722, 725, and 40X rifles. Built specifically for short action receivers and designed with high rings to accommodate larger optics, this mount/ring combo features a modern 34mm tube diameter and a built-in 20 MOA cant—perfect for shooters who want more elevation travel for distance dialing. If you’re searching for a rugged, receiver-specific Remington 700 34mm 20 MOA scope mount, the Talley 850700SM (UPC 810301025462) is designed to deliver stable alignment, repeatable accuracy, and a clean, professional installation.
Precision Fit for Remington 700 / 721 / 722 / 725 / 40X Short Action Rifles
The Remington 700 footprint is legendary, but correct fitment still matters—especially when you’re mounting today’s larger, heavier optics. This Talley combo is made to match the receiver geometry of Remington 700, 721, 722, 725, and 40X rifles in short action, helping ensure proper alignment and a secure hold under recoil.
Why receiver-specific fitment matters:
More consistent scope alignment and positioning
Reduced chance of shift under recoil or field impacts
Cleaner installation with fewer compatibility variables
Confidence that your mount matches your action type
If you’re building a modern long-range rig on a short-action Remington platform, starting with a dedicated mount/ring system is one of the smartest reliability upgrades you can make.
20 MOA Cant: More Elevation for Long-Range Dialing
The integrated 20 MOA incline is the long-range advantage built into this setup. A canted base helps you preserve and access more of your scope’s elevation adjustment by effectively positioning the optic for long-distance trajectories. This becomes especially important when you’re dialing beyond traditional distances, running flatter-shooting cartridges, or using optics with limited internal elevation.
Benefits of a 20 MOA mount on a Remington 700:
Increases usable elevation adjustment for distance shooting
Helps prevent running out of turret travel at longer ranges
Keeps your scope operating in a more optimal adjustment window
Ideal for steel, precision practice, and long-range hunting applications
If your goal is consistent dialing for extended range, 20 MOA is one of the most practical upgrades you can add to a serious setup.
34mm Rings: Built for Modern Precision Optics
This Talley combo is designed for scopes with a 34mm tube, a popular standard in modern precision optics. Many 34mm scopes are built with advanced turret systems, generous adjustment ranges, and long-range-focused reticles—making them a natural pairing with a 20 MOA mount.
Why 34mm matters:
Compatible with many high-end precision scopes
Often supports increased internal adjustment travel
Strong clamping surface for larger, heavier optics
Ideal for shooters who dial often and shoot far
If you’re moving into a more capable optic platform or upgrading to a scope designed for long-range dialing, 34mm rings are often part of that evolution.
High Rings: Added Clearance for Larger Objectives and Setups
The high ring height is built for shooters who need extra clearance—commonly for larger objective lenses, thicker barrel contours, or added accessories like flip-up lens caps. High rings can be particularly helpful when running modern scopes that have bigger housings and larger glass.
Reasons to choose high rings:
Increased clearance for larger objective scopes
Better compatibility with heavier barrel profiles
Room for lens caps, sunshades, or other accessories
Flexibility for modern optic dimensions
This makes the Talley 850700SM an excellent choice for precision builds where space and fit are key to comfort and functionality.
Black Anodized Finish: Durable, Corrosion-Resistant, Low-Glare
Finished in black anodized, this mount/ring combo is designed to withstand hard use while maintaining a clean, tactical look. Anodizing enhances surface hardness and corrosion resistance, helping the mount hold up against handling, moisture, dirt, and changing weather—especially important for hunting and field rifles.
Black anodized advantages:
Strong resistance to wear and scratching
Improved corrosion protection over untreated metal
Non-reflective finish suited for field and tactical use
Matches most rifles and optics for a uniform appearance
If you want a mount that looks as good as it performs and holds up over time, anodizing is a meaningful feature.
Integrated Mount/Ring Combo: Streamlined, Reliable, and Clean
Rather than mixing separate bases and rings from different systems, a mount/ring combo offers a unified solution engineered to work together. This can reduce parts count and minimize the stacking of tolerances that sometimes complicates scope alignment.
Benefits of an integrated combo system:
Fewer components and fewer potential failure points
Cleaner profile and simplified installation
Designed for consistent alignment and stability
Great for new builds and serious upgrades alike
For shooters who value reliability and simplicity, this approach is often the best path to a stable, repeatable optic setup.
Perfect for Precision Range Work and Long-Range Hunting Builds
The Talley 850700SM is ideal for:
Precision rifle builds based on Remington short actions
Steel target shooting with frequent elevation dialing
Long-range hunting where trajectory compensation matters
Load development and optics testing where repeatability is key
Shooters using 34mm tube scopes with larger objective lenses
Whether you’re building a dial-to-distance rig or a capable hunting rifle with modern glass, this mount supports your goals with a stable foundation.
