I am looking to build a 1917 sniper using the Winchester A5 scope.

I am asking the experts what is the proper spacing for the mounts.

My current '03 sniper with an A5, spacing is 7.2 inches and Brophy noted 6.0 & 7.2 inches was recommended on the '03.
From photos I have gleaned from the different forums and scaled of 1917's fitted with an A5 the spacing keeps coming to 6.48-6.5 inches.

Does anyone have any reference or experience on the correct spacing?

Thanks in advance
