Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Gunsmithing So you want a scope on your Remington M 8 or 81 ?

We've all seen the nasty side mounts jobs that both kill value and are rather unhandy.

Got to thinking, why not a Scout Scope setup like Redfield used to make for the Winchester 94 ?

One thing lead to another. I discovered a EGW rail for the Savage 25 has the same contour as the as the barrel sleeve. Some new holes in it allowed it to use the rear sight screws. Some aircraft epoxy will ensure it stays on. (Easily removable with a needle torch). Burris Signature rings and a Vortex 2-7 Scout scope completed the job.

Should help hit something with the 30 !
