VL63 What scope bases are these???

[bigbear]

Wondering around the net (waiting for my next grand dad chore to be announced by my visiting son/his wife/ my grand children) I came across this ad on GunBroker under Shooting Investments. It's an early model Finnwolf with scope bas´s (blocks?) that are unfamiliar to me. Can someone educate me? I have no interest in the rifle as I have 3 Finnwolfs, am old, retired, and broke.

Cheers!

It'sw an auction so I didn't think one should post that on a forum. If you go to Gun Broker, search Finnwolf and look at the offerings you will see it as described in my post.

Unlike many other forums, we do not forbid posting links to auctions, when it is done to provide information or ask for comment. What is forbidden is using the forum to post links to your own auctions on another platform.

Thanks! I figured. it out anyhoot. They are Optilock bases. I have only recently had a rifle with Optilock bases and rings. So far the jury is out on my feeling about them. I have low mounts and they are higher than I like. They also gave me issues with a scope ( scope adjustments would not work unless rings were tightened under spec) . I guess I'll be pretty smart by the time I get to be 100!
