I have the FWB dedicated mounts but have opted to use the normal dovetail mounts . The pin cam mark the rail easier than you would think.

What brand of normal scope mounts did you end up using?

Is that Ernst Apel or another make ?

I use the Sportsmatch one piece medium , just check the underside isn’t too fat\ rounded as some are.

The Apel mount is very good , I have these on the early Sport. I’ve not tried them on the new one.

Sportsmatch FWB dedicated ones are the ones to be carful with . Could be because the cylinder is wider diameter.

I haven't seen an image of the base of the Sportsmatch FWB dedicated mounts but is the metal cylinder removable? lf its too large could the diameter be machined down?
