The links are pics of my little .308 Mauser with S&K Scope Mount, attaches with allen wrench, no gunsmithing required. Just remove the rear sight and install the mount per instructions. They make mounts for a variety of Mauser models. Testing with several types of loads proves that the mount is rock solid. I am very pleased with it. The S&K scope mount web site link below.

Currently, I have a Bushnell red dot sight on it. I tried a cheap NcStar long eye relief scope, but it could not hold a zero, sent it back in exchange. The Bushnell gives you a choice of reticles, 3 mil red dot, large red dot, cross hair, and 3 mill red dot with a circle. Most of the reviews on it were good. It looks a little awkward, but in shooting at 200yd, I could hit a 14" gong 50% of time standing, from sitting or prone supported 100% hits with FNM surplus ammo. You have to use a "chin weld" instead of the cheek weld, but I still found it comfortable, steady, light, easy to point and shoot. (YMMV)

All in all, a handy little rifle that will make real fun gun and a fine hunter if I choose to hunt with it. (Will post later with some accuracy results, but suffice to say the rig provides very adequate hunting accuracy with good ammo.)
