I just emailed you the instructions but they are pretty detailed.

Do you still have the mount with the Weaver V4.5 you got from me??

The 99 uses extra elevation blocks in the rear due to the receiver drop. Getting them together correctly is pretty tricky.

It worked fine, but I was never really confident in the sturdiness of the setup. It seemed to hold in place very well, and I never had a problem with the mount shifting, but I always felt like I should check the sight-in every time I transported the gun. I ended up selling it to another member here on the fire.

There's a few videos out there of the flex of scopes and mounts-

Are you talking about the screws in the ring or the so-called windage / elevation screws in the base?

WINDAGE SCREWS AT BASE

Those screws are standard #6-32 threads. I have seen them in several lengths. I have one NIB and it has 1/4" allen head set screws. You can get them at any hardware store - usually.

i don't Need Screws. What I Need the Spacing Dimensions From Side to Side, Need to verify something.

Sorry. I thought You Were. grin
Posted By: Lightfoot Re: MILLER KODIAC MOUNT? - 12/13/14
The distance between the tips of the screws is about 1-1/8" The screws are about flush with the inside of the rear base. The distance will of course decrease as they are screwed in.

If that's not what you are looking for, send me a picture wink

You Confirmed as To what I Measured
