scope mount for contender

wtroper

I am searching for a one-piece scope mount for a 14" contender bbl. I have purchased a used 223 bbl with such a mount on it. It is a very clean, attractive and sturdy mount. However, I cannot locate a name on it.

The Lovell mount sold by FA is somewhat similar but, to my knowledge, is available only for the FA revolvers. I have found a mount, "Game Reaper," that also looks somewhat similar (not identical) and I do not know if it is available for TCs. On most of my TC bbls I have TSOB mounts. While they are excellent mounts, the one that I am trying to locate is more attractive and should be adequate for the lighter recoiling cartridges.

Any help would be appreciated.

That mount you are looking at has the base and ring as one complete unit. I am almost sure that TC still might market their brand of it called the Duo mount or dual mount. I once had a Contender carbine in 223 that I mounted a burris Fullfield 6-18x40 target scope on using two of them. One in the rear scope mounting holes, and one in the holes where the rear sight was. I lapped them and put the scope in to obtain the eye relief I needed. There was only about 6 inches of barrel left past teh objective lense of the scope. They are strong mounting systems to say the least.
