Savage No4 MK1

[Brenny]

Hi everyone, new member,I have recently restored a Savage No4 MK1*. It required a new barrel which i had done locally, it is now a 6 row as opposed to the original 2 row.
Everything else is original except the bolt which is mismatched numerically but is spaced beautifully.
Considering it is now not completely original, i have chosen to convert it to a No4 Mk1* T.
I have a reproduction scope but i am looking for advice on the best mount and plates and where to acquire them.
There isn't much left here in Australia, in fact no one has any of these old parts that i can find. Any help would be much appreciated.
This rifle is a joy to shoot and i would like to add the scope as a next level experience in using this rifle.

Read about it from a man whose job it was and has written books about the No4T and the scopes.

Brenny, in my experience the best quality repro pads by far are those made for Fultons of Bisley. I gather they are not cheap, but you get what you pay for. They are in a different league to the pads you see commonly advertised on that internet auction site.
