CZ 600 scope bases [picatinny rails]

To install a scope to your CZ rifle, you will need to have a set of scope rings.

Those can be made

• as one piece device, or as a two piece device;
• with quick detach mounting or with classic mounting screws;
• with different types of diemeters for the main tube; but foremostly
• they can be made as dovetail scope rings or as picatinny scope rings.

Picatinny base: yes or not

If you want to use scope rings with picatinny base, you need to have a picatinny base installed to your rifle in the first place.

Some rifles have picatinny base on their rifles installed from production, but many do not.

Can you mount picatinny scope rings to your rifle even though it is not equipped with picatinny base? Yes you can. You just need to get a matching scope base. 

In this section you can find picatinny base for many CZ models: CZ 457 picatinny bases, CZ 600 picatinny bases, and many other ones for older CZ rimfires and rifles. 

However, you can install also scope rings without any picatinny base on your CZ rifles and rimfires. How to do so? Through so-called dovetail scope rings. Those get attached directly to the dovetail of the rifle, and thus do not need any picatinny base interface.

Why to go for picatinny scope base

There are few reasons:

• you can use the same rings on many rifles (if you have);
• you can choose from wider range of rings - rings with QD attachment, tactical rings with offset red dot platform, high rings, low rings, etc; and 
• it is simply easier to install picatinny scope rings than to install dovetail scope rings - you often do not even need to have any special tools to remove them from the rifle.
