Pic rail for Hw66 - are all the brands one and the same?

[Guesty]

I’ve just ordered an HW66 rimfire and looking online for a pic rail to install. I have seen brands such as Apex (John Carr), Britannia and Reed Resolution (Opticswarehouse), where the rails look identical apart from the logos and the all largely cost the same. Are they all from the same manufacturer?

I am looking for the best made and lowest fitting rail I can find that uses the action drilled and tapped receiver threads, and not one that simply slips over the dovetail rail and uses grub screws for a friction fit against the receiver top.

Thanks in advance.

There's a simpler and cheaper solution that allows you to use a scope with pic mounts on any rifle with an 11mm dovetail rail

I use a pair of the short adaptors to mount my PARD NV008 onto a Tikka T1X rifle with an 11mm dovetail rails

A really neat, low and inexpensive solution

Simply fit the adaptor into the pic mount and then slide it onto the dovetail rail.

Tighten the pic mount in the normal way and you're good to go.

Thanks Bruce, but I'm really looking for an all in one rail that uses the receiver threads.

I've had those adapters before and never really trusted that they stayed put.

Thinking about it further, I would be happy with two piece bases as long as I can use the receiver threads. Does anyone know if such a thing exists?
