Dwayne , had to do this very same thing for a friend to get his scope mounted decently on a poorly sporterized P-17 Enfield that had the rear sight removed with a bench grinder. He put a $400 Leupold on it and at the time I wouldn't have given $50 for the rifle. It was his grandpa's and that made it all worth the time and money to him. Still didn't shoot great but after glassing in the action and free floating the barrel it shot fine. Still killing deer in North Dakota for him. Allways enjoy your posts. Magnum Man
