Anyone have the bases for the old Kimber (Brownell) double-lever quick release rings for a post-64 long action Model 70

I have a couple sets - but I am in Iraq and they are in storage in CO. If yo are still looking when I get home in FEB give me a holler.

THe Warne Premier bases will work also and are much easier to find than original Kimber bases.

Thanks Track Breaker (meant affectionately) & thanks for your service, I did a little time (28 yrs) on Active Duty myself, Light Infantry - Hooah

If nothing turns up before, I can wait till Feb, would rather stay with Kimber

Safe travels, keep your powder dry and main gun bore sighted

I have a set of bases for the model 70 made by Jim Wisner and I think the dovetail is correct. If not, I can make you a set.
