I Never have purchased or set up a Picatinny rail but getting a clue might be best and would like to look at other one piece 30mm ring set up that will would work for this scope. Thanks!


I sent this to the S&B USA tech rep for his opinion and he replied:

"I've reached out to Germany to acquire some technical data on this scope for me as they have not arrived yet and I have not seen one.

I would think that this long action mount would be too long for the scope considering the size of the 6x42 Klassik which should be very close dimensionally. If it would be long enough he would certainly get plenty of adjustment out of the optic but the mounting area is a concern. I would personally recommend using a one piece pic rail and low rings but it sounds like he's pretty set on a mount. Mounts used on a rail force the scope to be too high and why I use rings with rails."
