Does anyone know the as-designed dimensions for the scope mount holes on a short action receiver?
I have tried to measure them myself, but it is hard to be absolutely precise.
I figured this information should be readily available since every savage customer will need to find a base to fit the receiver and the scope tube length of their chosen scope. No such luck it would seem.
The question is regarding a 12 FCV and mounting a bushnell 10x40, which has only 6" of mountable length to it.
From what I can measure, the OAL is about 5.670" (c to c on outer holes)
