"How do you adjust windage/elevation with that setup? That looks like a B&L Balvar scope but I don’t see the adjustable bases that are normally used."
The one shortcoming of the M 54 S&L is that it was designed before huge turret scopes. When one is used the empty hits the turret and may fall back in the action.
The BalVar 8 removes that chance and is a fine optic even today. That one is a rare one with tapered CH and a small dot.
The Mounts are S&K which have opposing screws on each base so windage is easy.
Initially it was about 10" high, so a small shim under the rear base brought it to 3" high as JOC suggested.
You do have to pick a load and stick with it.
