Scope rings for Kimber of oregon rifles

Does anyone currently make any detachable scope rings for a Kimber of Oregon rifle? Square bridge action with milled in dovetails.

I belive the rings that Jim Wisner used to make will fit, I need to check with him (can't today as shop is closed). He no longer makes them but I have some that I could sell.

You can occasionally find a set of origianl kimber rings on Ebay but they usually sell for 125-150 or more. Sometimes you can find a set of Warne Premier rings but they sell for only slightly less.

The Warne Premier rings were made in 2 version - one had a smooth underside and would fit the Kimber receivers. The other type had a small lug on the underside to lock into a slot cut on the bases. The lug can be filed off in about a minute and will then fit the receiver dovetails.

I have a couple sets of the Warne Premier rings if interested.

See inbound PM.
