That on a classic 99 would look like a wart on a hairy mangy dog's ass. Would look great though if the rifle was ceracoated and planted into a camo-painted stock, with a Harris bipod. And a flashlight taped to the barrel. Geez, I didn't say it was a looker. But in a world of limited options it is a solution.

I had a rifle that two piece mounts would not sit flat and in alignment. One piece Farrell steel base solved it.

I find them very useful for developmental work; makes it easier to get the eye relief where I need it so I can test the weapon rather than its operator. When I am finished testing, I remove it and save it for the next wayward 99.

It's just a one piece pick-a-ninny rail.

this works, Leupold or Redfield mount with offset front Leupold front mount. I got this one from Cabelas. the scope is a new Leupold 2x7 ![[Linked Image]](https://www.24hourcampfire.com/ubbthreads/gallery/80/full/250091.jpg) another rifle with the regular ring for comparison. the scope is a new Leupold 3x9 ![[Linked Image]](https://www.24hourcampfire.com/ubbthreads/gallery/80/full/250092.jpg) Thank you for the comparison pictures. It may be the camera angle making it difficult to judge, but it appears that by using your base system and an offset front Leupold front mount only fractional rearward movement is gained. I need to get my short tube Leopold 2x7 at least another inch further rearward as I tried to show below, Like the 3x7. ![[Linked Image from i.postimg.cc]](https://i.postimg.cc/hG51xbfZ/IMG-1561.jpg)

It allows about 1" of rear ward movement.
