Scope on a .22 magnum sight in... ??

[Conax]

In the dim past (when I was a kid) .22 LR were 50 cents a box, .22 WMR $2.00. Then for about 20 years .22 WMR were about $5. Then $8 to $10 until the big ammo shortages of the Obama years. Now, to the moon, Alice!
You have to be a big fan of the cartridge to pay $15 for them. They cost more than 9mm rounds. Sad. Maybe the Rooskies are making them now, I'll have to check.

I was recently gifted a Henry .22 Mag with a scope - the original sight had been removed. I ordered a HIVIZ universal rear sight, 3/8 dovetail, but my dovetail is 11mm / 7/16th's. That thing is loose as a goose. Anyone know of sizes other than 3/8 on Henry's?

Welcome to the forum from CT. You are going to love that rifle. Give Henry CS a call. It wouldn't surprise me if they offered to send you the OEM sight.

Another welcome to the forum. Do you know how old the rifle is? Some of the early receiver covers had slightly different sized rails.
