1987 vintage 7x57. I plan to use a Leupold VX II 2x7 in low rings -- no irons on this one.

It is an interesting piece I got for a song. Chopped 20 " barrel. Nice trigger. Good to excellent metal. Quality after market synthetic stock. Came with a tent peg 30 mm and weaver high rings -throwaways essentially. Might leave as is or...redo in nice wood as a mannlicher.

Thanks for pointers on this.

Am sure it won't. Steel Talley lows will, however. In Leupold rings, use medium.
