Does anyone have the dimensions for the RPA front sight mounting block (How far should it sit compared to the end of the barrel?) I see the dimensions in the thread but are the redfields mounted the same as the RPA? Do you think any decent smith can mount it or do I need a specialist I've...

On page 19, there's a pic that mescabug put up of the old original 2 piece base 50039, I am pretty sure 59230 came next, then 61983. the countersink on the old 59230 was deeper than 61983 and used the same length screws.

Still a work in progress, just aero upper/lower, prs gen 3, trigger tech for trigger, jp bolt, lmos carrier, silent capture spring, sentry 8 gas block, nos proof 22 plus 2. Caliber is 260, basically its what caliber I shoot, so I went with it, kac and asc mags help with coal. Showing some promise.

Thanks for the reply

I have an Osti made bns-22, from this forum the BNS is made by OSTI for Night Vision Depot right along side the PVS-22. The BNS has the same ratings as the PVS 22 for everything but the tube. Safe to use on a semi 260, only ever use it with my 556 rifles in the past.

Many years ago I got a stock from Mike Kokulus, Custom Gun Stock Duplicating outta Pennsylvania, cannot remember whether he had an original in his personal collection or whether it was a duplicate of a stock from Martin Bordson. Obviously the quality was very good. Unfortunately Mr Kokulus has...

Just got a set, thanks

The outback is both narrower and longer, yes the hole spacing is correct. My other rear mount is handfiled to fit the nuts

Mentioned earlier in the postings about the Cloward made rear sight base, had previously gotten one many years ago from Outback but quickly discarded it as dimensions were off. Afew pic, Clowards version, the outback and obviously original wb490.

The wb490 needs beveled, I would say that these would need bevel as well.

Those Cloward rear bases are very like the ones Outback used to make, a good alternative if you can't get a wb490, Steve Earle made one as well which was very close to the wb490 dimensions.
