Are DD Ross and Badger M40A3 style clip slotted bases unobtanium?

    I bought a 40X that’s clip slotted and would like the slotted base to match. I only started looking today but not seeing any available. DD Ross appears to be MIA entirely. Anyone know where I might find one or how often Badger does runs?
     
    Maybe one of these these? If you can find one

     
    Check LRI. He has lugged scope bases for clip-slotted Remington Short Actions.

    Is the rear bridge flat or still radiused? (Should be radiused unless been modified)

    DD Ross won’t sell his base unless he does the build. We spoke at length about that. He’s building my A3 presently. I believe he said he did at one time so there must be some out there.
