I have a Remington express .22. After a little work on the trigger, rws34 seal and a lube tune shoots smooth and accurate. The scope rail has grooves parallel to the 11mm grooves. I had to glue the 1 piece mount to keep the scope from sliding back since there is no scope stop. I bought a Ruger air magnum which attaches a picatiny rail on 11mm scope rail with 4 screws. Looks like this may be a solution to the Remington slippage. Was going to remove and put on the Remington but it is a one piece deal and I did not want to mar it prying it off. Anyone tried this solution? I guess Umarex is the source for the mount. A search of vendors and schematics has found no info.
By the way, I bought a .22 and .177 Remington express at MidwayUSA when they were clearance. They are back in stock on sale for $105. This is great deal for a little time spent cleaning it up. Dave

Just curious what did you do to the trigger to smooth it out ?

Sportmatch makes a set of rings that should solve you problem. They fit 11mm base and have cross pins that fit the grooves in the rail so wont shift. Pyramid Air #PY-A-5263 about $30.00.Hope this helps. These are not the same as Weaver rails. Just have to get the glued on part off.

I just took my 1 piece mount and pushed it all the way to the rear (where the grooves stop) and it doesn't move at all.

I put a B26 trigger in mine (got it from FlyingDragon) and deburred everything. I also compared it to the rekord trigger on my R7 and did just a little "reshaping".

I followed these directions

Besides shaping the trigger I also polished the sear and contact points on the parts that come out with the rear pin.
I removed the three lock washers under the forward screw and put some locktite on the threads since it was a loose fit.
Polishing was done with a polishing disk so no material was really removed. Lubed and reassembled.
The one piece mount moved enough to start to tear-up the aluminum. Dave

I put one of these along with a BKL double strap ring when scoping my Diana 350. After 1000+ shots no movement whatsoever. Not cheap though!
