Scope Rail question.

I have a flattop M4. I took the scope off it. The rings fit fine. I tried to move it over to a Savage Mark II .22 rifle. The rings don't fit. The rail is slightly different. Aren't there 2 types of rails....weaver and picatinny or something?

A little help.

Your rings have Picatinny crossbolts which don't fit the Ruger's Weaver sized cross-slots.

Weaver is a narrower slot than a Picatinny.

Weaver will fit on picatinney but picatinney will not fit on weaver.
