In this one I'm just eyeballin' it for size. Says, " Weaver V22-A" on it...And the Mohawk 10C it came off of. Barrel was never bedded correctly.
Leonard,Short of having the reciever grooved (an expensive undertaking), you need some kind of barrel clamp mount. The Air Venturi mount sold by PA for the 392/397 reciever will fit the 9/16" barrel of your 160. You may have to place both scope rings forward of the adjustment turrets to get the proper eye relief. You will probably need lower rings than those see-through gizmos, they will have the scope way up there. The old Weaver V22 and D series have 7/8" tubes but I see you have shims for using 1" ringsLooks like you had the same problem at one time that I did, a ring you couldn't remove. One of my D4s is a sealed unit, neither the eyepiece or the turrets come off. So, I found some more 7/8" rings to place ahead of the turrets and just left the one where it was.The 160 is an accurate rifle, well worth scoping. Good luck and have fun. Oh yes, nice restoration job!

Oh yes, nice restoration job! Yeah, Gander Mtn wants $80 to grove it, but would cut right through the logos on the left side of the receiver. Here's some adaptor mounts I thought might fit, but I don't have a way to measure the 160 to know for sure? https://www.pyramydair.com/product/air-venturi-intermount-fits-benjamin-sheridan-multi-pump-rifles?a=2015Quote from: bantam5s on September 25, 2016, 08:35:02 PMQuote from: unionrdr on September 23, 2016, 05:23:45 PMIn this one I'm just eyeballin' it for size.

It uses .22LR. Mini Mags sound like a .30-06 in that short barrel. Thing is LOUD! I'd like to sell the semi auto if you want it? I cancelled the order on the Hatsan Carnivore .357 too. Since I can barely walk atm, till I get surgery, I thought it a waste to but a $674 gun atm for pig huntin' & the like. It'll be a great gun for that when I do. They wouldn't put it on my MasterCard like I wanted. Instead, they put it on my checking card, which takes away from bill payin' money. So. unless they change that, it's a no-go for now. I'll stick to bench shooting for the moment, until I get fixed...
I was afraid of that. I thought that receiver diameter was closer to 3/4"...just not quite. I take it those Robinson mounts aren't made anymore? They sure are hard to find!
