Hello from a Newbie to the site.
Well, I am new to the Forum But not to guns. I recently purchased a 1967 Winchester Model 88 in .308, interestingly that was the year I was released from active duty in the Air Force. My eyesight is not what it once was so I purchased a Williams WGRS 88-100 Rifle Aperture Peep Sight and as recommended a Marble’s Front Sight of .450” Height. I can shoot very good groups but they are 4 inches high at 25 yards. Not sure what that works out to at 50 or 100 yards. I would like to see the groups about ½ inch high at 25 yards. I decided to mount a scope and purchased a set of Redfield Frontier 2-piece Scope Mount Bases FR-88 513116. Does anyone know what Rings I should get to work on these bases? I have weaver and Picatinny Rings and they are both too wide for the base. The weaver and Picatinny base is about ¾ in. wide but the Readfield is only about ½ in wide. Thanks for any and all help you can give.
