Yup, the entire 700 series is all the same. Weaver #35 and #36 or the one piece #98 for long action and #97 for short action. The variant is the 600 series, XP and XR which had one hole in the back and used the one piece #70 base. The black sheep is the 4 hole model 7 which uses a #35 and a proprietary #421 Weaver.

When I was a kid. I had the stick. I had the rock. And I had the mud puddle. I am as adept with them today, as I was back then. Lets see today's kids say that about their IPods, IPads and XBoxes in 45 years!
