Bases to suit 8-40 screws on Model 70?

[MagnumManiac]

Hi all,
I am having a conundrum, have recently opened up my Win Model 70 EW in 338WM to 8-40 screws, did the same to my other Model 70's too a while back. Trouble is, unlike before, I cannot find any std bases that come adaptable for 8-40 screws like I have in the past.

Would anybody have the correct part # or where I can find some?
I can modify the set I already have, but I may need them for another build in the works.

Cheers.

What kind of bases are you wanting? I don't know what a "std" base is.

Well, should have mentioned that...doh.
I am after a set of Leupold std type bases, non PRW or QRW.
The trouble being now the website for Leupold is rather difficult to navigate.

Cheers.

No help here. I've always had to drill and counter sink if I went to 8-40.

I just went to Leupold's site and typed 8-40 in their search and got 2 pages worth of bases listed. Should find what you're looking for.

Thanks, the same page I found. Mark 4 stuff is not what I'm looking for.
I'll just have to mill the ones I have.

Cheers.

I did see dual dovetail bases listed there. Those may or may not be what you're looking for. It may be tough finding a vendor that stocks those.

Did you try contacting Leupold?

Thanks guys, all sorted, I milled out the ones I have and have ordered a 20MoA rail for the other project.
Just found some interesting Australian made/owned LR/target scopes. A FFP 4.5-27×50 or SFP 4.5-27x50 R3 I will use the latter on a new 264WM I'm building on a Sendero II action.

Cheers.
