I recently acquired a 512 remington and would like to have it drilled and tapped for a scope. Does anyone make a base for it? Any suggestions?

Is it not grooved on top for 22 rings?
I have nothing clever to put here.

The one I got was a Weaver 1 piece mount. It looks like they set it on and marked the holes then drilled. I wish you were closer. I’d trade you guns. No you wouldn't. It has some history behind it.

I am looking at a pile of 400 new old stock weaver bases. If you figure out what number base you need let me know and I am sure I have it.

The 22 in our house was (and still is) a Remington 510....same as 512, but single shot. It now has a Weaver one piece mount (I think it is a T-1) and matching Weaver 4x scope. Looks like they turn up on ebay now and then.
If it is a TO-1 I have several.

I have the Remington 550-1,,wich is basicly the same rifle ,but in semi auto.It says shorts,long and long rifle on the barrel and it will cycle all of them flawlessly.I would like to see a modern .22 do that.I too would like to scope this rifle,,but I think I will have to have it drilled and tapped.So I will be watching this thread.

Mine doesn't have the factory grooves.From what I can find,,mine was made in 1950,,and the grooved receiver option didn't come out till 1958.

How in the world can a semi-auto with a tube fed magazine be the SAME as a bolt action rifle (different action and magazine fed)?Also.the 511 has a one piece stock and the semi autos are two piece stock.Basically the same,like "we went to different schools together! You maybe should do a bit of research before flapping your lips..Did you look at the two rifles side by side? NOPE.They look identical other than the bolt.Same tube fed magazine,same ONE PIECE stock.
