[QUOTE="SidecarFlip, post: 977725, member: 39764"] Earl: Try Badger Ordinance or EGW (Evolution Gun Works), both have online sites, both sell retail through many outllets including, I believe the Long Range Hunting Store attached to this website/forum that you'll find on the forum start page. The only difference between a Weaver rail and a Picatinny rail is a slight dimensional change. Both both rails will mount devices interchangeably FYI. There has been some bad press on this site in the past concerning EGW rails but I personally haven't had issue one and I have a couple. With any rail-to-receiver mount, the rail needs ro be bedded (secured) to the receiver with a locking/friction increasing compound (as well as the mounting screws). To that end I use my standby blue threadlocker between the rail and the receiver and torque the attachment screws accordingly with a torque sensing screwdriver like a 'Fat Wrench'. Every component, from the rail to the rings to the ring securement fasteners to the ring halves need to be properly torqued. [/QUOTE]
