Have a new Leupold pistol scope. Bought the rings and base that Leupold web site says fit the gun.
No luck - rings do not fit the base.
Base appears to have a rectangualr cross section, rings seem to want something with an angled cross section.
The rings are Leupold Number 57385 "Detachable Medium Rings"
The base is 53564 "Dual Dovetail S&W Classic Silver"
It looks something like this: http://www.leupold.com/hunting-and-s...andgun-mounts/
I just had the same problem mounting a Nikon Prostaff to a Ruger 10/22 - can someone help me with the basic language - apparently there is no standard or multiple standards for rings and bases.
Lucky I bought some see thru rings for the Ruger that do away with the base and just bolt right to the receiver. At least I got that one mounted.
Started mounting them myslef because can't seem to get local folks to do it without banging up the gun. Frustrating hardware though - should be easier.
