I got an H&R Topper 158 in .30-30 a short while back and have had it to the range. I had to buy some (Haaack, spit...) factory ammo 'cause I didn't have any brass yet. To make a long story interminable, the iron sights really leave something to be desired, a Lyman folding rear and a low blade front mounted on a low ramp. I'd like to mount a scope, I have several that would be suitable, but I don't know when the rifle was made. Weaver makes two bases, the 60-A
for Pre '73 rifles and the 82 for Post '73's.
How to tell 'em apart? H&R inconsiderately neglected to put the date of mfg. on the rifle.
