What type of mounting style came on the older Kimber of Oregon rifles like the one below? Is it something like the Ruger's? Thanks?

Are they Warnes?

    That rifle has a grooved receiver and the Leupold rings were made to fit that groove. Kimber sold those under their name.
    Some Kimbers had grooved receivers others were drilled and tapped. Kimber bases used Kimber rings or early Warne Premier rings where recoil lug was the front of the base.
    Later Warne Premier bases for Kimber rifles had a groove and Warne Premier and Supra rings fit those. Their recoil lug is integral to the ring.
