The scope rail is I found on Amazon, with an extra long baŕrel grub screw & nut at the front. The rear fixing uses the rearsite screw. I have extras should anyone wish to do the same.
Simple, but ingenious, Nick! Have always wanted to pop a red dot on my 600 but always thought it would need machining...never thought of using the rather obvious existing screw locators. Not quite sure how it works with the front fitting-does the nut sit in the existing recess on the top? If you have extras, I'd be very interested.
