Does your rifle have the detachable style sling studs? If so measure the width of the sling where it goes through the swivel. I have a bunch and will send you a couple for the shipping cost if I have the right width.

Just get the Uncle Mikes swivels---they'll match the studs on your rifle---the studs are not detachable.

You match the swivels to the sling width---generally 1in or 1.25in.
