It's the German way. Most times the scope is carried in a padded leather case, and mounted once in the high seat.
Its strong, and returns to zero.
It's a bit high tho.
My experience with a rail, is that rings have to be high enough for the front ocular to clear the front of the rail.
That puts the scope higher than my liking.
I dont like it.....
So use lower rings and cut off the front of the rail, or buy one that's short enough to start with. This isn't that hard; a rail mount can end up about the same height as a dual dovetail and low rings.
You came here asking for suggestions, and have been led to water. If you didn't want to hear suggestions, why not just stick with the DD setup you've got?
