Bought a used 325C in .30-30. It was fitted with a Weaver side mount and an older 3-9x Bushnell. I did some bedding adjustment and installed a Leupold 2-7x. It shoots great and on a good day can do MOA for 3 shots at 100 yards. It loves Hornady FTX factory loads, and likes handloads using Leverevolution powder. Its favorite load is 170 gr Nosler partitions over a Leverevolutuion powder.
Best .30-30 I've ever shot.

I don't think it does, I just checked and it has two together near the bolt in the rear and one ahead about an inch and down about 1/8". So it doesn't have 4, I looked at the one you sent and it is the right idea, but it won't work unless I can get Gunsmith to drill and tap it for me. Thank you for trying.

You have an early rifle. The receiver sight in marked WFC 175. Screws for attaching are 8-40x3/16" oval head. If you go the route, make sure you know what an original looks like and that what you are buying has all the correct parts.
