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.

What scope mount would you need for a Springfield model 87-A?

That will take a Weaver #12 base for both front and rear or a Weaver #2 sidemount. Weaver notes that the rifle will need to be drilled and tapped. See http://www.weaver-mounts.com/mountcharts/default.aspx

What scope mount to use on a Remington score master 511p 22 cal rifle?

The Remington Score Master .22 rifle does not come from the factory drilled and tapped for a scope base. If you choose to have that work done, you can buy a set of bases that fit this particular rifles receiver. The most economical bases are those sold by Weaver. The number for the base fitting on the rear of the receiver would be the Weaver top mount, #43. The mount that will fit on the front of the receiver would be the Weaver top mount #42. These bases would require that the top of your rifles receiver be drilled and tapped to accomodate these bases. All of the 500-series Remington rifles (.22 rimfire caliber) have the same type of receiver and use these bases. With these bases you can use one-inch tube diameter scopes and rings to get a better field-of-view and clarity over the low cost 3/4-diameter scopes. Any competent gunsmith will be able to do this work for you.


What type of scope mount would go on a Sears Ranger 101.13 with two holes that look like they were factory drilled and tapped on the left side of the receiver?

The Ranger 101.13 (.22 caliber, clip fed, bolt action) was fitted with a side mount that was stamped with "T3" and anchored with slotted thumb screws marked "F" and "R" (front and rear). The scope that came with the rifle was a "Wee Weaver" M. 3-29, 4-power, Weaver scope. If you would like I could email you pics of the mount. Just email me at: BLKLION@MC.NET --- bill

Where can find scope mount for a savage model 5?

The receiver may already be drilled and tapped for a Savage no. 150 micro peep sight.( two screws close together on the left side) If you see well enough a receiver sight like this is quite accurate and as that model should already have the mounting holes tapped for it that would not decrease the value of the weapon if it is a collector in good shape. If it is not accurate with the sights on it adjusted properly a scope will not magically improve accuracy. If the barrel is in good condition and the rest of the rifle is in good shape it may actually decrease the value of the weapon. Considering it's age.. somewhere between 1936 - 1965 butchering one in decent shape is not something a caring gunsmith would be happy doing...that said it can be done. You can also take a collector 1903 Springfield in original condition with matching numbers worth thousands and make it into a scoped sporter with a cutdown stock worth a few hundred at best. As far as mounting a scope on it, that would require drilling and tapping mounting holes. This should only be done by a qualified gunsmith. Aside from possibly damaging the firearm the other issue is a gunsmith will have the jigs and fixtures to insure proper alignment for accuracy. A dealer that handles Weaver products may have the mounts to top mount a scope for you. A #12 and a #13 base would be needed as well as having it drilled and tapped for them. To side mount one a # 2 side mount base should do it. ____________________________ April 2011 A Weaver Side Mount Base #2 will mount on your Model 5. One-inch side mount scope rings then mount to the base. The original side mount for the Model 5 was the Weaver N3, which held 1/2" rings. These are no longer made. After WWII, most Model 5's were drilled and tapped at the factory for the Weaver N3 mounts. Many people also took their pre-war rifles to their gunsmith and had holes drilled/tapped after the fact. These may or may not be expertly done. Note that the original 1950s-1960s tapped holes were 10/32 threads, and modern scope mount hardware will have 8/32 threads. I have a post-war Model 5 that's drilled/tapped, and it has the Weaver #2 base on it. I also have a pre-war Model 5 that's not drilled, and I wouldn't dream of touching it with a drill bit.


Where can you find a scope mount for a savage springfield model 840 3030?

The Savage springfield 840 is the later version of the Saveage 340. Midway USA has a #1 weaver mount for the 840. Under savage 340 they also offer a B-square mount with rings that has better reviews than the weaver mount.
