Scope rings for 15mm grooved receivers ?

Post by 257whby » 04 Sep 2024, 9:51 pm

Got a pair of old Sportco Mod 10A's with 15mm grooved recievers.

Only rings I could find were some old cheapies by Stirling ..they work after a fashion but would like some better ones ...or ideally a base to picatinny rail ?

Has anyone seen a Pic rail with a 15mm dovetail ?

First thing I thought of, as I have ordered a set with 11mm dovetail for an airgun.

Thanks GQshayne for that lead,
but I have tried Tikka rings ....the problem is the Sportco receiver top is raised and if you grind enough material off the bottom of the ring you bugger the bottom of the crossbolts that clamp the rings on ....I don't really want to grind metal away from the Sportco receiver ...but that is a possibility !

Have a look at the Sportsmatch range though, as they make a large selection.
