Dan, all four of my Cooper rat rifles wear STD Leupold bases and ring sets. The setup allows me to mount my scopes as low over the axis of the bore as possible.

No problems with bolt stems or knobs hitting the scope also. :D

I like the Warne mounts for my Coopers. They use them at the factory too.

They sure do Dan. Cost used to be $60 per turret, not sure if that's changed. Contact their Custom Shop for the work. The number is on their website. You'll be glad you did, the M1 turret makes a huge difference in the field.
