    I just bought a good tier 2 scope (Sightron SVSS ED) and an MDT unimount to put on my Howa SA. A 20 MOA rail with a recoil lug are the required specs. I have a Burris 25 MOA rail that's worked fine so far, but seems like it may be the weak link now. Is there a substantially better quality pic rail (w/ recoil lug) any of you Howa shooters are using?
     
    The MDT 20MOA rail has a recoil lug. I have a couple of them on my rifles and they do the job fine

    I can't recall if mine has a recoil lug or not. However, I decided to go with NF. They are known for durability and quality.

    If you truly want the best of the best, go Murphy Precision, Ken Farrel, or Near...
     
    I wasn't aware that MDT made a rail for the Howa, so that's what I'll go with since I already have their unimount. Thanks for the suggestions!

    Where did you end up getting your scope from?
