Kelbly rail question

[krumfola]

I just bought some anodized Kelbly picatinny rings and need to purchase a 1 piece rail for my 700. The only 1 piece, 0 MOA, picatinny rail for a short action from Kelbly is in the "raw" finish.

This rifle will be hunted sometimes so there's a pretty good chance it will see some rain and humidity.

Would the "raw" aluminum rail rust?

Is there a better, reasonably priced rail that would work?

Aluminum won't rust. I would go with the Kelbly

Thanks for the reply. Of course they are out of stock so I'll be summoning all of my Google powers to see if I can find one.

I checked the hart website but didn't see any Kepbly mounts.

Call them. They made bases for Kelby and Picatinney. Both 0 minute and 20. MATT

I just spoke with Kelblys and they were actually in stock so I ordered it. Thanks for the heads-up about RWHart.

I just looked and their website is about junk. They are really a full shop with everything for precision shooting. They chamber guns and make rests, rails, rings and all sorts of things. They used to have a catalog. Matt
