[QUOTE="scottishkat, post: 1164341, member: 82202"] Those are definitely old Redfield products all around. They made the old wide angle scopes in the 80's I think they called them wide field. The mounts look like an old Redfield junior bar and dovetail mounts. They are pretty much the same as Luepold today as they purchased Redfield and the bases became their intellectual property. The give away is the screws are on the underside of the rings. The first thing Leupold changed. That was an aesthetic that Redfield did back then made a rifle scope mount really clean but not very practical. We put them on everything back then. I owned the same scope and mounts back then and they were the way to go for reasonable price. I never liked the eye relief it was different. Redfield made them before they came out with what they called the ultimate illuminator. Not long after that they were going out of business. My recollection is they had an old plant that the EPA wanted upgraded. [URL]https://www.redfield.com/redfield-story/[/URL] Good luck and shoot straight Bob [/QUOTE]
