Your rifle is more than likely a short action like my rifle was. If it’s a long action the front base is switched. But yes you are correct. The underside of the base tells you the orientation.Hawkins shipped my new, high, hybrids today so I’ll update and end this thread next week when I get it all set up.
Going back through this thread I couldn’t help but notice that a lot of guys aren’t mounting the hybrids correctly. The undersides of the bases are labeled front and back but they also have an arrow on them which should be pointed toward the muzzle. I’ll attach a pic for comparison purposes but with 25 MOA built into this system, there’s no way you’re taking advantage of that without proper mounting.
