I like the Swaro Z3 3/9x and have one on a 7x57. However if eye relief is an issue (sounds like it might be), the Leupold has almost an inch more eye relief and similar quality optics.

Rook - It's only off while it's being switched from one Mauser action to another that is on its way to the gunsmith.

The short length of the rear tube wouldn't provide any additional rearward mounting benefit versus other options.
I think the best options thus far point to the S&B 1" 6x Klassik or barring that, a Swarovski Z3 3-9x36. Certainly open to other options also, but I've not yet found anyone offering a new old stock or lightly used on here on AH.

I have a kahles 3-9x42 with a tube length that is over 5.5". If interested, drop me a PM.

Does anyone have a Zeiss 1.5-4.5 Diavari scope with a 1" tube for sale?
About to order something but was hoping to find a scope such as the above instead as I think it will have maximum adjustment in my application.

Hi Jody,
I have been looking for ideas on the best way to display my European mounts from Africa. I came across some of your shield work and was wondering if you would be willing to make one for me? If so, please let me know the cost. I like the shield with the two spears that you built for a member years ago. Thanks.
