Therealchucknorris Posted March 5, 2014 Report Share Posted March 5, 2014 Evening all, I'm probably overthinking this one and overlooking a simple solution but... I've got a Howa .243 that has a Weaver type rail on it to accommodate the old scope.. Having just taken delivery of a new Mamba it has some decent looking rings with it that I'd like to use...trouble is they have an 11mm dovetail base that won't fit on the rail. I've bought some other rings that fit on the rail but think they're sub-standard so I'd like to remove the rail, bin the replacement rings and keep it simple. My main issue is trying to find a base (or two piece) that fits the Howa and will accommodate the MTC 11mm dovetail scope rings. Can anyone point me in the right direction please? Thanks in advance... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cal 7888 Posted March 6, 2014 Report Share Posted March 6, 2014 get some better quality weaver/picatiny rings! don't both with 11mm rails, their really for an airgun or rimfire! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Therealchucknorris Posted March 6, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 6, 2014 Perfect - cheers Cal. I'll look to pick up some Weaver solid steel rings instead. Guess it'll be more versatile in the long run anyway. ta muchly.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
