best scope mounts for Marlin Guide gun 45/70?

[Dan-o]

Picking one up. 

Want to pit a low power scope on.....   maybe 1-5 power or something in that range. 

Anyone got a favorite scope mount for these?

Thanks in advance.

I have XS"scout" rail on my marlin 30-30. They also make the "Lever" rail and they make the rails for both the 336 and 1895.

I have the XS Lever rail like the one in the second picture.  It is well made, versatile and looks good.  The peep sight system is a good match for the rifle in my opinion.

Unless you're totally set on putting a scope on it, have you considered a peep sight.  I put a Skinner peep on my guide gun and couldn't believe how much better they are than the stock sights.

Thanks all!

And yes I need a scope...... my old eyes just don't focus on iron sights anymore.....

I also went with QD scope rings mine are the leupold QRW's

@superdown

Do you like those QD's?

They scare me but would be really cool if they work right.

Yeah they work good.I marked the slot for the rear ring so i know exactly which one to put it in when i take the scope off.I have only taken off the scope three times once to sight in the ghost/peep and twice just to see if they would hold zero and the did so i don't have any complaints.
