I am interested in modifying some Talley LWs to fit a Remington model 7. The idea is to buy some 34mm rings for a Model 700, and shorten the rear ring base if necessary, and drill a new screw hole to fit the Model 7 screw spacing. No direct-fit lightweight 34mm rings are available for a Model 7 and I don't want a heavy rail + picatinny rings.


Is anyone aware of this having been done before, or any reasons that it might not work?
