[QUOTE="James H, post: 379080, member: 5449"] Ray, Glen uses the same oddball screw spacing on the Defiance actions so here is what I did for my Defiance Long action. The distance between the 2 front holes and between the 2 back holes is the same as Savage but the distance between the 2 middle ones is different. I got a Savage short action Round back EGW 20 MOA base and drilled a new hole in the base for the rear hole at the front of the action. I only have 3 screws holding the mount but the vast majority of force on the mount is through the rear of the mount when under recoil so I think it will be ok. Brownells has the screws here.

I just kept cutting until they fit. You about need a mill with a good table to get the hole drilled in the right spot on the rail though. It's looking bad for me making it to Pierre so maybe I'll make it to Pella, definately will be at Byers. Later, James [/QUOTE]
