| I'm finally going to put a scope on my little ruger. It's a centenial model from 1976 (9 years older than me-- it was a gift from my grandfather). Anyway, I have the factory scope mount and screws, but it seems like a pretty pathetic mount. How well deos it hold up? Any good mounts I should be aware of? |

I've had good luck with the Ruger mount. I used it for many years with good succuess. You can find I" rings to fit the 3/8" groove and a .22 doesn't have enough recoil to shake it loose. But I've also replaced it with the Weaver TO-9 scope base. It screws on in the same place but is grooved for the 3/8" tipoff rings and the full size rings used on centerfire guns. I've now put the Weaver on three 10/22's and won't consider using any other base. |
