Re: Scope base for the SB Hunter
Weigand's mounts are great. Had you ordered it directly from him, you could have gotten the rings at great saving. He runs a special all the time with his mounts and rings.

I hope you have better luck with the Z rings than I had. I tried to tighten the screws and stripped them I ended up with Leopold base and rings on my Ruger 10-22 Target rifle. I am glad to hear that your SB Hunter shoots so well.

Swede, I had to lap the rings because the Bushnell red dot has a tube diameter of 1.010". I also take a file and file off the sharp edges on the bottom of the rings where they fit on the base. A lot of bases like the Weigand are wider in this area. After filing, they slid right on and I didn't have to overtighten the screws.
