Scoping No4 Mk1

[elitematch]

Hopefully I won’t get ran out on a rail here ,lol. I’m looking recommendations for scoping my No4 Mk1. I’m not opposed to drilling & tapping, this particular rifle was a gift so I’ll never sell it & more interested in functionality hunting with it. No I’m not throwing it in a synthetic stock..

Years ago I bought the old ATI no drill mount, & quickly realized it would not hold up for hunting purposes. Kinda been out of the mil surp circle for awhile & some of the old boards & parts sources have dried up. Anyone got a recommendation?

I had one of the S&K mounts for mine, it uses the screw for the rear sight leaf iirc but is no drill, reversible and worked just fine.

Brian Dick of BDL LTD. in SC sells the Parker Hale no drill telescope brackets. He and others say they are the best of this type, but not cheap.

I went with the S&K decades ago. Rock solid after I shimmed the piece that tightens the mount to the charger bridge. It is solid enough that I won numerous action rifle matches with the combo back in the 80s. I added a repro #4mk1 (T) cheek rest to the butt comb to get a proper cheek weld for the scope.
