Pete, did Knight tell you those rings took the Weaver-style bases? Warne did make a line that took a special base - I believe they werePremier bases/rings - similar to thethose that weremade for Kimber. Just thinking those QR rings might be that smaller base type as I know Knight did sell those under their label at one time.
Just curious.
Gamaliel closed out a bunch of those type bases some time ago for dirt cheap and might still have some even though I can't locate them there. This page shows the base I am thinking of.....
