Since I can't use normal mounts on my savage mark II F due to the holes being drilled uneven , could I use "dovetail " rings or whatever they're called?  I'm heading to the range this weekend and want to shoot it.

Is your MKII groved on top? Mine isn't but I think that mine is a FS.

I dont know, can you? If there is a dovetail along the top of the receiver then you can.

Call Savage and send it back if the holes aren't right they should replace it.

the Mark 2s i've seen were not grooved. don't know if they're all like that, but if not sending it back is your only option.

don't think i'd want 4/8" dovetail rings on it. not a lot of options in ring height and type.

don't think i'd want 3/8" dovetail rings on it. not a lot of options in ring height and type.


The Mark II that I used to have had a dovetail instead of being drilled and tapped.

What holes are off? Savage had a problem with the front holes being drilled about .1" closer to the port opening so a lot of one piece mounts won't fit. Post a pic of the top of the receiver if you can.
