Trying to verify if the Murphy Precision picatinny rail adapter will work on an early 1980's Anschutz 54.18MS. This is the original silhouette rifle, NOT a repeater, and has a drilled/tapped receiver currently wearing Weaver #91 bases on top of the 11 degree dovetail.

I would much rather go with a screwed-down scope base, over a dovetail clamp style 1913 rail, so the primary question is will the screw holes line up on the early 54 action with the new style rail?

Alternately, if anyone is aware of 30mm or 34mm rings that have 20 to 40 MOA built in AND fit Weaver bases, please sound off. I want to update the glass on my old school rifle and it's throwing me some challenges. Thanks!
 
Here are the screw hole dimensions on my receiver. Anyone have a new 54.18 receiver or mount to compare these to?
