I know this isn't specifically about precision rifles, but i think you guys will have the answers.
I have an older Rem Model 7 with the 3 scope base screws instead of the now current 4 holes. I need a new base and I can't find one exactly like I want that says it will fit the Mod 7 with 3 holes. I THINK i read that a Rem 700 SHORT action scope base will fit but I can not confirm.
Can anyone confirm that a Remington 700 short action scope base fit a Rem Model 7 3 screw action? Or can anyone at least point me to a dimensioned drawing that has the distances between the screw holes so I can compare it to what I have. And also confirm that the rear of the action is lower than the front of the action so the base will be thicker.
Thanks!
BTW, I am looking to put a longer scope on the rifle so I am looking for something like this to extend the scope rings a bit further apart:
- Professional mount
- Weaver products
- Weaver tactical
