You might already know this, so if this is old news ignore it, but even though most people believe that the one piece mount is more stable and stiffer, it has been proven that two piece mounts are just as accurate and reliable.  This said, I'm not sure I have seen a two piece quick detach mount?  I for one still look for a 1 piece mount when buying for my hunting rifles, but do have several two piece mounts.  Come to think of it, I believe my father's safari grade 700's have two piece QD Leupold bases.  They seem to hold their zeros perfectly even with the .416rem, .338win, and .375HHmag calibers.

I just purchased a Precision Reflex 1 piece base for a Remington 700 about 2 weeks ago and the fit,finish,and machining on it is excellent.I'm using Leupold Mark 4 rings.Have you considered trying a different set of rings on it?

FrankSquid:If you want a 1 piece base,I wouldn't write off the Precision Reflex base.Although it's possible that his base slipped through QC,I would have sent it back to Brownells,explained the problem and waited to hear what they and/or Precision Reflex could do about it before I dismiss their products and dealers.I DO have one of their bases and it is top shelf.I would have preferred to use a Leupold Mark 4 1 piece base(I have their 2 piece Mark 4 bases and rings on a Model 70 Winchester),but I have a long action PSS (7mm Rem.Mag.)and Leupold only has the 1 piece Mark 4 base for short action Remingtons......so I bought the PRI base,and I like it alot.
