Savage Sporter 32-20

[Big Al1]

I've mounted several scopes on M23's and was about to do one today! I use one of the Brownell's Universal Dove Tail bases and drill holes in the base to correspond with the two holes on top of the action. I put a scope on my .22 Hornet and am putting one on my .32-20. I then install a vintage scope. These rounds don't kick hard enough so the dove tail holds just fine. The small hole is, I believe, 8x40 and the bigger one a #10, not sure of the thread size!

Thank you Big Al. I have a couple more questions about the rifle if you don't mind.

I sent a PM with my email address. My question is on the magazine. I think I am missing the magazine retainer. With some googling I may have answered my own question. I am also missing the rear action screw.

Also, I am logging off for a while for some appointments. Thanks again for your help.
