Mew member: looking for help with my recently acquired Savage No4Mk1T

[HKPB]

I can't say enough good things about the bracket I got from Roger last year. It's hard to take pictures through the scope, but here are some before and after shots showing my less-telescope Savage with a reproduction No.32 Mk I scope (of unknown origin) mounted first in the bracket that came with the scope and then in Roger's bracket. In both cases, the rifle is bore sighted to the dotted square on the test target and the scope is optically centered very close to the middle of its adjustment range.

As you can see, with the first bracket the post was not only canted but also shifted so far left that it would have taken all the windage clicks just to bring it back to center.

With Roger's bracket, everything is damn near spot on. I can't comment on the quality of the scope since I don't have an original to compare against, but thanks to Roger at least it's pointed in the same direction as the barrel!
