I have an old Sako AIII 25-06. I am trying to mount a 2.5 x 10 x 56 scope with a 30 MM tube. The rifle has two dove tails integrated in the gun. The rear one ( toward the stock) is narrower than the other one and tapered.

will these work? Is one narrower than the other?

I also found this http://swfa.com/Talley-2-Piece-Base-P4902.aspx

will these slide over the Sako dove tails and lock in place? Do they have a set screw in them to secure them?

any help or advice will be appreciated.
