I have an unusual rifle, and I’d like to have scope bases made for it. Is there a go to local resource who can reliably do something like this?

a good machinist could probably mill some nice bases from SS Bar stock. We have a few great ones on the THF. maybe they will read this and chime in. I'm just guessing.

There are semi finished bases intended to be machined for final fitting. I was hoping to go down that path.

It’s a .378 Weatherby on a Brevex magnum Mauser action. There aren’t too many Brevex actions floating around.

If you’d want to part with the rifle I probably know a buyer. I advise not to mess with it.

Let's see some pics of the action and the bases. I found one possible solution this morning. I’ll be sure to reach out to you if it doesn’t pan out.
