I know that Leupold has ones that your gun smith can mill out to fit your gun. They are made for custom guns and other guns in that matter but you could get one of those and have your smith or someone to mill it out and make it fit your gun.

Burris, Redfield and Leupold make the standard 2 piece scope base. The front is dovetailed and the rear has the two screws. I ordered the Burris in nickel for my stainless Bighorn and mounted an Elite 3200 3X9 today. It's a beauty. Took the 5 star Redfield off.

On the rear base the two screws are windage adjustments. Use those to get close and then dial it on in with the scopes for maximum adjustment.
