    Posted: June/19/2008 at 20:35
I have a new Savage rifle that needs a scope & I have never used a picatinney base before, but they look to be more versatile than ordinary Weaver stlye bases. Are the Burris Zee style rings compatible with the EGW picatinney 20moa bases -- OR -- are picatinney style rings the only design that will sucessfully work on picatinney bases? I have an ample supply of Zee rings so if there is no need to buy another set of rings why spend the money? Any help appreciated.

the z ring bases will not slide on the end of a picatinney as i recall, however in most cases weaver type rings will fit picatinny bases.
