I just picked up an Ithaca LSA-55 243 bolt action rifle. It seems like a very well made rifle. I had been looking for a one for a long time, but had never seen one in person. I have read good things about them. The scope mount situation is a bit troubling, but I like everything else. It had some scope mounts that looked for all the world like modified rimfire rifle grooved receiver bases. The previous owner said they did not move and held zero perfectly, but I have my doubts.

What can you all tell me about your experiences with this model of rifle and what was your remedy for the scope mount situation?

Thanks in advance for your input.
