Will the Leupold Backcountry Rail fit my Marlin 336 lever-action rifle?

Yes, this 1-piece rail (MPN LE184838) is specifically engineered to match the receiver profile of Marlin Model 336 lever-action rifles and compatible receiver families like the Marlin 1895. Machined from lightweight 7075-T6 aircraft-grade aluminum, it provides a secure and permanent mounting platform that maintains zero under heavy recoil in rough Australian bush conditions.

What type of scope rings can I attach to this cross-slot rail?

The Leupold Backcountry Rail features a universal cross-slot design that accommodates both Picatinny-style and Weaver-style scope rings. For a seamless setup, you can pair it with reliable options such as the Leupold Backcountry Ring Mounts or mount a versatile optic like the Leupold VX-Freedom Scout 1.5-4x28 Riflescope.

Does this rail have any built-in elevation cant?

This model features a 0 MOA base cant, meaning it has no built-in elevation incline. It is designed for standard hunting and shooting distances where a flat mounting plane is preferred for zeroing your optic at typical ranges.

Are there any electrical compliance requirements or Australian certifications needed for this mount?

No electrical compliance, SAA approval, RCM certification, or 240V power compatibility is required. As a purely mechanical firearm accessory, it is exempt from electrical regulations and built entirely for rugged outback utility and durability.

Marlin 336 Scope Base - Leupold LE184838

The Leupold BackCountry Cross-Slot Marlin 336 1-Piece Matte scope base (MPN LE184838) provides a highly durable and lightweight optic mounting platform for Marlin lever-action rifles. Machined from a single block of high-strength 7075-T6 aircraft-grade aluminum, this mount offers the ruggedness of steel without adding unnecessary bulk to your rifle. In the Australian hunting landscape, where lever-action rifles serve as essential utility firearms for pest management, property control, and hunting, having a reliable zero-retention mount is crucial. This base is built to withstand extreme heat, heavy recoil, and the constant vibrations of off-road transport in utility vehicles across demanding terrain.

Cross-Slot Versatility: Features a design that accepts both Picatinny-style and Weaver-style scope rings, giving you freedom when selecting optics.

Who It Is For:
