It will require that the rifle be drilled and tapped for scope mounts. Some small rifles (usually .22 rimfire) can use a dovetail mount, but those rifles are made with the dovetail grooves, and they will not work with a heavy recoiling caliber. There are a very few scope mounts that use existing rear sight bases to mount the scope, but it will be very far forward on a T/C, and need a long eye relief scope. Your best course would be to have a smith do a professional D&T for your rifle- relatively cheap to do.

Will a rifle drilled for a weaver top scope mount accept a nightforce scope mount?

If I were you I would first measure the hole distance on the rifle,center to center on the rear 2 holes and see if the measurement is the same on the nightforce mount.I would then measure the distance fron the 2 rear holes to the front 2 holes and see if that measurement is the same as on the nightforce mount.Then you will have positive proof that the nightforce mount will fit or not.
