Old Weaver 3/4" side mount questions

[awp101]

Ran across a rifle that has the old, non-detachable side mount for a 3/4" scope. The problem is, I need (and have a number of) 1" scopes. Weaver's website isn't real helpful either. It lists the new bracket part number (48402) but there's nothing about the rings.

Do the new detachable mounts have the same screw spacing? I can't find anything regarding the spacing on any of them old or new.

Thanks!

Weaver made sets that included the 1" rings at the same time. Watch Ebay and you can pick up a vintage set. Depending on condition they go anywhere from 20 to 50 bucks. reflex264

Thanks, I didn't know that! It's good to know there's an option in case I decide to go for it.
