PH43-RAILS – Contessa Picatinny Rail for Browning X-Bolt Short (Standard & Extended NV)

The Contessa PH43 Picatinny Rail for Browning X-Bolt Short is a precision-machined steel optic base engineered specifically for the Browning X-Bolt Short action platform.

Machined from solid hardened steel, the PH43 provides a rigid and recoil-resistant foundation for mounting Picatinny-compatible optics. Designed for exact receiver fitment, the separate base components install securely using vertical locking screws, ensuring stable alignment under repeated firing.

This rail is available in two configurations:

• Standard 0 MOA (Flat Rail)

• Extended 0 MOA for Night Vision and Thermal Optics

The extended version adds rearward rail length to improve eye relief positioning, particularly for night vision and thermal devices that require additional mounting space.

This is not a universal rail. It is purpose-built for Browning X-Bolt Short receivers.
