34mm rings for a pre-1964 Winchester Model 70 (30-06)

[zzzzbzt]

As titled - Talley makes a set for Winchester 70s generally but it would be great to get a set with a 20moa cant if anyone knows of an alternative!

A pic rail is off the table for aesthetic reasons, but if there's a dovetail that passes the owner's standards for appearance that would be a great rec too.

Thanks for any help in advance!

I don’t think you are going to find anything but good luck!

Hmm. Leupold makes a 20moa standard base but not for the pre-64.

I’d talk to Murphy Precision or Near Manufacturing. They can do custom stuff.

Just do O MOA Talley rings

Are you really gonna shoot enough LR to use up the elevation in a 34mm scope body with the pre 64 model 70?

99.9% chance its a no.

Maybe, but the owner likely isn’t a military sniper. He’s a guy concerned with the ascetics of his classic hunting rifle.

Then he should ditch the 34 mm scope.

As mentioned above, if you are going for aesthetics... go for a more traditional style with smaller tube and a weaver mount.

I recently picked up an amazing older Zeiss scope for my Rigby. It was a bargain. Old tech. Weaver mounts. Does everything it needs to do on a hunting rifle.

Unless your rifle has been converted to long range.. .then go Pic rail... And don't worry about aesthetics. It's all a trade-off.

And also recommend Near or Warne. But most of the large diameter stuff they are going to do will be also aesthetically-un-pleasing.

Post some pictures of the rifle... everyone here likes pre-64's!!!
