What gun is this Scope Mount for???

[oldmax]

Any Idea what it Rifle it's for, Looks like it's notched for a 22lr sized bullet.
It's a REDFIELD with a ' 75 ' stamped on bottom,All steel, well made..

Just a WAG, but since it's marked "75", it might be designed to mount a sporting scope on a Winchester Model 75 rimfire boltgun, in the two rear target scope mount/block holes, on the front receiver ring. (The M-75's front target block was on the barrel, IIRC)

LIGHTBULB IS FLASHING..

Is a W 75 look like a WIN Mdl 70 ????

OK, I now remember, I was given a Gun Cabinet with stuff in it
( wifes cousin ).

I remember that they had a winchester Bolt in 22lr, I thought it was
a Model 70, Didn't look like the 75,

Was There a Model 70 in 22lr, Or did I really see a Win 75...

And, Is the scope mount worth anything ????

Winchester made a bunch of .22 boltguns, besides the M-75: IIRC, the M-52, M-56, M-67, M-69, & more

[Was There a Model 70 in 22lr,] - Nope

[And, Is the scope mount worth anything ????] - Only $5-10, IMO - unless you really, really, really want a period-looking piece

Huh? Maybe I'm just tired, but did that make sense to anyone else?

The thinness of the rings seems to imply that it was made for a rimfire. But, then, Leupold makes those ones where the top of the ring is just sheet metal.

It makes sense to me, since I figured oldmax was referring to the .22LR-sized loading/ejection port, obviously towards the side of a receiver with a long front receiver ring (because the mount holes are so far forward of the clearance cut for the port).

Model 67's, 69's & 75's all shared the same receiver - the only differences IIRC being fit/finish, magazines, barrels, sights & stocks.
My Model 52 is a little different in the rear of the receiver - but the front ring's almost the same, too.

Oh, okay, NOW I gotcha!

Anyways, I was showing my wife where the boy dinged my gun, while pointedly thumbing through the midsouth catalog, and saw those very rings. Page 31 in the current catalog. They're Burris brand. Order number 023-420071 Other numbers, also, but that oughta pull up a picture.

They start at $15 and change. The base will run about the same.
