Just wondering if someone can confirm that Howa 1500's take the same scope base as a Rem.700 LA.
I assume they are the same given this from Brownells:

My confusion stems from the fact that some Howa 1500's are Short Actions and some are Long:

So, do all 700 LA bases fit both Howa Actions?

Remington 700 LA also fits Howa 1500 and Weatherby Vanguard
