I bought Savage mark11 fv, scope bases factory mounted. Are they Weaver style bases I have to buy new mounts, I'm not sure what to buy.
Thank You

Google Weaver scope base chart and scroll down to Savage. You will need to know the action length and when it was made.
Good Luck

1. Flat rear base only applies to older Savage 110 high power rifles

2. Eveready: To answer your question, INdeed, my Savage MKII FVLSS came with "Weaver style" bases, but I had some trouble with
Weaver style rings clamping well, so: I removed them and found the Weaver Number 42 bases front and rear fit my Savage MKII FVLSS rimfire rifle perfectly

Ah. I read it as a model 11 not a mark II.
