I would like to put a modern set of sights on a Remington 540xr for my son and need an adapter to go from the 3/8" grooved receiver to the modern 11mm sight base of the rear diaopter. Does anyone know of a commercially available product? I've searched and searched but haven't seen anything yet.

I bet some nicely cut shims would work to make up the 60 thou difference.
Re: 3/8" to 11mm sight risers / adapters
Depending on the specific rear sight you're using, it may clamp on without shims or an adapter. I would certainly recommend seeing if it's actually an issue before you go down the adapter/shim road.
If you do need something to take up some space, a piece of aluminum can cut to the appropriate size should do it.
