Browning safari/ FN large ring factory hole spacing?

[Noel]

Is the hole spacing for a Browning safari mauser receiver the same as the standard spacing on a FN large ring 98 Mauser?

Located a mount base but it is a one piece Buehler, seller is not sure.

Cheers

I'll re-copy it here;

** remark ** it's only for the late FN and Mark X actions, not the "military" ones.

"F" = two pieces
"FI-S" = one piece, "Short mount"
"FM" = one piece, "Long mount"
"FI-U" = one piece "Micro-Dial"

Hole spacing is the standard Weaver pattern means 0.850" front and 0.500" rear, distance between inside holes is 3.800" (means the two holes facing each other, front and rear bridge).

If memory serves Noel, didn't you have one for sale a couple of years back?

Which one, the mounts or the gun? Answer would be yes to both! The Buehler set up I had was for a small ring like the 308 I sold you.

The other set were for a Weatherby and wanted another hole D&T'd in the back ring which of course is taboo to a puritan.

Just thought I'd make due with a one piece until a two comes along.
