Millet or other Weaver style scope rings should work. I think that is the purpose in having the factory milling cuts. The rings in the picture you referenced do not look like the factory rings that came with my 29-3.

Some say millets won't work. Weaver style I know won't work becasue the slot is like a half circle.

Sixpointfive,

The Rings you're looking for are referred to as Millett "Weaver Style"~"Angle-Loc" Scope Rings!! They generally run in the $20-$50 Range depending on the Scope Tube Diameter, Finish & Height!! The "Weaver Style" designates they have the Cross-Bar that fits in the Slot broached cross-ways in your Barrel!!
