FN mauser is the application. May even be the same as an Interarms Mark X.

Brownell's Catalog lists several Weaver bases for the SEARS 50 and 51. You may be able to find them at any good gun shops.
The first listing shows: Rear #54, Front #46
(That's the same listing as for the Shultz and Larsen, Musgrave MkI&II, rear (#54.) base is also used on the Browning BAR.
If you need an extension base to fit the scope spacing, #402 is used for the Front.
(Note: Anyone can order through the Brownells.com website, or call them at 800-741-0015.)

The 50 is an FN 98, so it takes a 45 and a 46. At least mine did.

Resurrecting an old thread.
So I followed the counsel on here, ordered and received #45 and #46 bases. #46 fits the front and rear. #45 is way off:banghead:. So I currently have the #46 in front where it is supposed to go, but now need to find out what base has the same bolt spacing as the #46, but the height of the #45...any one have any clue? I was wanting to mount a scope for next months hunting trip...(yes, it is a Sears J.C.Higgins Model 50 .270 rifle)

Some Mod 50 had three holes drilled and tapped in the rear receiver ring. I have seen many. There are two lengths of base for the rear on those. I researched it and finally figured what I needed. I went with the steel bases and rings from Talley. I think I have the info written down somewhere. If you still need help, email me at gwsears at gmail com and we'll get it figured out.

actually if it has three holes in the rear bridge it was a wide space rear base receiver that was modified to take the standard rear base. for some strange reason fn made the receivers for the jc model 50's with two different rear screw spacings.
here is what the factory rings and bases for a jc higgins model 50 look like. the bases are a dovetail design with a recoil shoulder on the front base and the rings are very similar to the old sako rings but with a straight dovetail instad of tapered. i've heard the rings & bases were made by mashburn but they are unmarked. at one one time i had 5 or 6 sets of rings & bases but i'm down to my last set.

The spacing front and rear on mine is .860". I ended up using a #46 front and #47 rear. Works just fine and no shimming needed.
