$$$ but they are  very nice, machined once they get your order, and you can do stainless steel or titanium. High quality

I wish I would have seen this option when I was setting up the leupold red dot on my knight. Looks like a great setup. I do like my setup but this would have taken a lot of guess work out of scope rings and such.

Just try a couple Weaver # 15 (48015).
They will be two piece bases that work fine.
They will probably be under 20.00.
Take your rifle with you to check hole spacing and contour.

Remington 541 Pattern bases work as well.

 I put the Murphy on mine, works great with the Seekins Rings and RDS.

Good leads above from the hive mind. I wanted to mount a Leupold Freedom RDS with Warne QD rings to ease cleaning. I started with Warne two-piece mounts, but the spacing of the rings on the RDS wouldn't allow it to drop into the slots. Boo. I eventually bought a 0 degree rail from EGW (https://egwguns.com/knight-bolt-action-muzzleloader-picatinny-rail-0-moa), and had it chopped in two and coated by the Cerakote King of Tacoma. Without chopping, it's *tough* to access the Red Hot nipple I'm running. I'm happy with the results, but might have gone a different direction if I had it all to do over.

You might consider putting some sort of heat/debris shield under your scope.  A lot of hot gases and chucks come out of that slot.  Even wrapping some aluminum foil underneath will help.

My Bighorn came with a 2-piece rail.  I guess they don’t do that anymore.

Thanks for the tip. My Bighorn is over 15 years old...maybe they hadn't started shipping with the mounts yet.  She only looks young because of the fresh makeup.

She's younger than mine.  I bought it Jerry's surplus; they went out business at least 15 years ago.

I have Leupold 2-piece bases on my old LK93. I believe they will fit any round receiver knight.

What MOA on the rail did you use on the Murphy rail for the big horn? And what set of seekins rings?
