Those JC Higgins have weird hole spacing for scope base mounts. Weaver std 98 bases will not fit and many get drilled an extra hole because of this. Mine has an extra hole on the rear rec. ring and it's off-center. Warne is the only place I know that makes a mount specifically for the M51. It's an all-steel weaver style so is a very good mount. The new Warne style mounts for this rifle have two slots for rings so it gives you some flex to have a ring closer to the rear of the front receiver ring and allows for shorter scopes,

That M8 4x scope on yours is nice and long and is a good fit for longer scope ring spacing.
