Mounting Truglo rear sight on Model 70 - 02/16/17
I'm new at this, so please bear with me & my total ignorance.
I got a complete Truglo rear sight assembly, including the base & the two necessary adjustment (elevation & windage)screws as a gift for my project --- reinstalling front & rear sights on my 30-06 Model 70.
What it did NOT include was the Williams-type long screw to bolt it down onto the barrel.
My questions are:
Can this assembly be attached with just ONE screw (there's only one mounting screw hole on the base)?
Will the Williams screw fit into the pre-drilled & tapped holes on the barrel for a rear sight?
Any & ALL help would be greatly appreciated.
I'm basically learning as I go --- which is a great way to get to know my rifle --- but these little parts are expen$ive & I'd like to avoid buying stuff that I don't need.
