10/22 scope base Picatinny??

Anyone have suggestions for a picatinny mount thats a direct replacement for the factory scope base? I want one that's a true picatinny rail that will use the predrilled holes on the top of the 10/22 receiver.

I'm going to switch over to a spare Aimpoint PRO for awhile on my tapco 10/22 until I can decide on a permenant scope for this 22.

Just FYI, UTG also makes a picatinny rail for the 10/22 that is perfectly functional.

I had already ordered the Tactical Solutions $30 15moa picatinny rail before I saw this.

Could have saved myself a few bucks on that one, oh well, live and learn. Thanks for the help all.

Yeah, I would have trusted the UTG just fine, anything picatinny would have worked, it was just that the OEM rail is a weaver tipoff so it wouldn't take the Aimpoint PRO's mount.

That's an adapter for converting a Weaver rail to Picatinny. It will raise your mount point and introduce extra places for things to come loose. I would not use that. Buy an actual 10/22-specific Picatinny scope base with holes for the factory receiver screws. I got the Midwest Industries base

I meant any Picatinny rail. The Tactical Solutions rail you bought is top of the line and should work great.
