Leupold QR Sauer 90/200 2-Piece Quick Release Base – Matte Finish

The Leupold QR Sauer 90/200 2-Piece Quick Release Base is a rugged, two-part scope mounting platform engineered for rifles built on the Sauer 90/200 action pattern. Featuring Leupold’s Quick Release (QR™) system, this base allows you to quickly remove and reattach your optic while maintaining close return-to-zero accuracy. It’s manufactured from precision-machined steel and finished in a low-glare matte black to provide both durability and a refined hunting-ready look.

Key Features

Quick Removal & Reattachment:
• The patented QR lever system lets you detach and reinstall your scope with minimal shift in point of impact — ideal for gear transport or optic swaps.

Precision Lever Mechanism:
• A carefully machined eccentric cam on the lever pulls the scope ring downward and forward onto the base, locking it firmly in place with repeatable alignment.

Two-Piece Configuration:
• Split base design offers better access to the rifle’s action and simplifies installation compared with one-piece solutions.

Sturdy Steel Construction:
• Forged and machined steel construction delivers strength and recoil resistance for long-term field reliability.

Matte Black Finish:
• Low-reflection finish blends with most rifle stocks and optics for a tactical or hunting-oriented aesthetic.

Made in the USA:
• Built to high manufacturing standards and backed by Leupold’s reputation for rugged gear.

Performance & Practical Use

Leupold’s QR mounting base lets shooters mount a scope solidly while still enjoying the convenience of rapid scope removal and installation. Thanks to the patented lever system and tight machining tolerances, the QR base pulls rings into consistent contact with the mount each time, allowing you to swap optics without significant changes to point of impact — a major plus for hunters and travelers who may need to remove optics for packing or transport.

The two-piece layout also leaves room around the receiver for easier access to the rifle action or loading port, and pairs seamlessly with Leupold’s QR scope rings to deliver a stable optical setup that stands up to repeated recoil and use.

Best Suited For

✔ Owners of rifles with Sauer 90/200 action patterns
✔ Hunters and shooters who want quick-detach scope capability
✔ Field use where optics might be removed for transport or storage
✔ Those pairing the base with Leupold QR rings for a modular setup

User Tips

Match With QR Rings:
This base must be used with Leupold QR™ rings — these are sold separately and designed to engage the QR lever system correctly.

Check Compatibility:
Confirm your rifle action matches the Sauer 90/200 footprint before purchase.

Return-to-Zero Testing:
After attaching your scope and zeroing it, test removing and re-installing to verify the point of impact remains within acceptable limits.

Clean Mount Surfaces:
Before installation, wipe base and ring contact surfaces to remove oils and ensure proper lever engagement.
