vz 24?
Is the 1 piece scope mounts the same as a standard 98 mauser?All the one piece mounts that I can find just list 98 mauser.The vz 24 is drilled for a scope with three holes( 2 front 1 rear) whereas my 98 has 4 holes (2 front 2 rear).

The Redfield and Leupold Mauser 98 mount is designed for converted military rifles. If you want the mount with 4 holes, look for the FN or Mark X mount.

mount
Sir:
I have always used the Redfield one piece - you can get in big trouble (although it can be used successfully) with Weavers on the Mausers! Harry B. |

VZ24
Sir:
In my opinion you've got the "best" of the 98s! I've used them for everything - my last one is a 9.3X64 - the equal of the 375 H&H. No set-back or other problem! Harry B. |

The correct mount for your VZ 24 with 3 holes is this one: http://www.brownells.com/aspx/NS/sto...61-730&s=19777
You want Brownell's part number 526-261-730 Clemson

ohwoody: As for the fourth hole just use a plug screw to cover up the hole and to protect the threads in that fourth hole. I used the word hole three times, someone take this shovel out of my hands!
