I recently bought an 03 Springfield. It came with a Lyman 2.5x All Weather Alaskan scope. I want to swap to a modern mildot, variable power scope. I'm looking for mounts that will use the bases that are there. I can't use the rings that came with it. It is drilled for the Lyman target sight. I figure it was probably a National Match rifle, since it was made in 1926. The stock has a beautiful grain, but has been cut down, the barrel has been bedded with acraglass, and it has a redhead recoil pad. I may replace the stock with a broken 03A3 straight stock. I am not wild about bedded barrels, and I prefer a straight grip, and shorter pull. I am tempted to make a base and attach it to the wood with four small woodscrews. Thanks in advance. Love the scope, by the way. The only problem is it doesn't like dusk or early morning dim light.
