Yes, but you'll likely need to drill and tap the receiver and cut into the wooden handguard. The front and rear bases are typically spaced 7.250". This will provide 1/4 MOA adjustments on the rear micrometer mount.

Will this scope work on the Stevens 416 22LR Military trainer?

Manufacturer Answer
A
Answered by Hi-Lux Optics, Manufacturer from CA, United States, on July 06, 2022

If your Stevens 416 22LR Military Trainer has crescent scope blocks installed, you will be able to slide the Lyman style mounts directly on to the blocks.

Otherwise, you will need to drill and tap the barrel and receiver to install the scope blocks.
