Anyone ever mount bases on a Marlin 783 .22 Mag? Most say that the dovetail rings work fine but I want something a little more rigid. Chris can you find barrel dimensions and drill it for a commercial base or would you go to a rail mount? The other option would be to make a base? Maybe a DNZ style? Suggestions anyone?

I am with the crowd that says that the dovetail will work fine, have mounted scopes on dozens of the Marlins as well as hundreds of other dovetail topped rifles with never a issue as long as quality rings are used. Leupold (part number 54234) makes a great set that was the preferred rimfire ring at my shop.

However I can see your desire for a stronger mounting system, if you want to spend the money to have it done then so be it, but there will be little if no improvement by doing so. |
