Hello all, I'm looking for a on the side scope mount, I was thinking to keep the iron sights and don't like the looks of the ATI ones haha, any suggestions?

I think the Addley Precision is a better idea but if there is some reason why you prefer to have the scope mount attach to the side of the receiver (and this will entail having it drilled, which the Addley Precision does not require) you might be able to get a Williams set up with offset rings from Brownells.

I had an S&K Scope Mount ( http://www.scopemounts.com/index.html?main.html ) on my .303 many moons ago. It worked fine for me, but I did not do a lot of shooting with it to see how it stood up over numerous rounds.

Me too, very well made mount. Easy to unbolt and return the rifle to stock trim.

I just googled the Addley Precision, it replaces the rear sight, I was hoping to keep the irons incase my scope buggered up on me, alot of times irons are better for moose and bear, my area alot of bears haha.
TheTooner, I just wanted to keep the rear sight, my sks I replaced the rear sight with a magwedge rail, works ok but changed the looks alot I find

It comes with a replacement rear sight which you then have access to through the hole in the mount, your peep sight is still functional. Or it might be the other way around and the see through hole in the mount replaces the peep sight, either way the little 300/600yd peep sight is still mounted to the rifle and you have a back up peep if the optic fails. I've never had the need to use the peep since I installed it.

The Cad-Technik does what you want, you can retain a whole ladder sight but it mounts the scope quite high (use a replica No.4T cheekpiece or a Beartooth comb raising kit) and I'm not sure they are still made. I have two and they work just as they should and I like them, but I'd have gone for the Addley if it had been available back then.
