@ Rick99, Calhoun, & Mad Dog: Before posting,- Looked all through Weaver's and also Kwik-Site's online listings and also past catalogs from both; Nothing for the 51/92 bases application, hence, my post. The other thing is that there is a difference in height between the two sets, (difference in configuration [slot-lengthwise] through one set(46/61)while the (51/92)set has the tops flat across the top of each).
Both sets are configured for the round-front/flat-rear receiver of the early Pre-Stevens models. I do have 2 stainless 116s (.308Win),(.338Win Mag); 1-Mod 12(.22-250); 1-mod 112 (.30-06) 1-Mod 112FV(.223); 2- 110s in.308&7Rem Mag; ALL,-according to SAVAGE- have .125'(1/8")difference in height [front/rear of action surfaces], and all have flat rear action faces. Neither of these sets have this dimension. They measure @.112"(51/92) and .130"(46/61) My concern herein is- Will the difference in height (f/r) between the bases, have any detrimental effect on the scope tube-IE-denting; internal damage to adjustments, etc.?
This has not been of very much concern in the past,( with less expensive) scopes and Kwik-Site See-Through ring/base combos on all my rifles [right-handed/left-eye-dominant] current failing eyesight dictates a GOOD light-transmitting scope, in this case-for now- BUSHNELL ELITE 6500- and until corrective surgery- I don't want to mount anything on either the 112- -06, or the 12-.22-250. These scopes are (to me) too expensive to just throw them on these rifles and risk damaging them when it is avoidable.
I called KWIK-SITE Friday morning and was told no one in the office to help me.....call back next week. I've had their sights on all my guns since '75 with no trouble whatsoever. I'd like to keep it like that.
Thank you for the replies and I will keep them in mind when contacting KWIK-SITE on Monday. WILL.
, was "...there is an ebay listing that has a KS51 matched with a KS92 these are silver and for a Savage 116". I don't know if that is correct or not. You might e-mail Weaver and ask them.
