Iron sights removed from my Zastava (Remington 798) .458 Win. mag., I installed Leupold bases and rings, shown here with a Leupold VX-2 1x4 scope -

I'm a big fan of the ancient Weaver system on big guns (and light guns too, for that matter). Personally, I use two-piece bases instead one 1-piece bases because it gives my big fingers better access to the loading port. But many shooters prefer the one piece rail. Use a little lock-tite on the base screws.

The Weaver rings are a pain to set up initially and look buck-ugly to some, but they're hell for stout. And if the rifleman has a coin in his pocket, he can remove the Weaver rings from the bases while in the field and go to his open sights. Then, he can re-attach his scope later with little worry of loss of zero (but I always check on a convenient target).



I was hoarding when hoarding wasn't cool.
