Default Kimber 82 scope mount question

I have a Kimber 82 in 17K hornet with a Leupold 3/8 dovetail scope mount on it. That mount works fine.
I just bought a Kimber 82 in 22K hornet and I can not get the Leupold 3/8” dovetail mount to fit.
Did Kimber make different sizes of dovetails, or am I doing something wrong?

Anschutz also uses the 11mm dovetail, and Leupold makes a mount to fit.

BKL and Burris Signature rimfire rings fit both 3/8" and 11mm dovetails.

Dale is the bottom of the rings flat or curved. That may be whats stopping them to fit.

Default Kimber

Flat.
I think you are correct.
I’ve located a set of Talley rings that are supposed to fit.
Thank you.

Edit- the rings arrived and work perfect, they are 11 mm.
