    If no dove-tails, you can get an HW95 barrel with the dove-tails, and then get the shroud machined.

    A 3d printed sight block could be made to slip over the shroud ?

    My HW95 Super Match, came from Waffen Schneider in Germany - looks like they only have the 'Match' version (minus barrel shroud) :

    Lets see if I have understood this correctly?

    HW95 Super Match comes with barrel sleeve.

    HW95 Match does not have the barrel sleeve.

    Both HW95 Super Match and HW95 Match use the HW98 stock with the adjustable cheek piece ?

    Is there such a thing as an HW98 Super Match or an HW98 Match ?

    My guess is that the very stiff HW98 barrel break mechanism is not best suited for use on a target rifle - by the time you have managed to break the barrel a few times the effort needed would be too much to hold the rifle steady on target - although it may latch more securely than the HW95 latch does, so it is a bit of a quandary when trying to decide whether to convert my HW98 by adding a dovetail to the barrel sleeve or not?

    I have to add that once the barrel break has been completed, the effort needed to cock it is no more than the other HW break barrel rifles I have owned or shot.

    Maybe they should have used the lever type of barrel locking mechanism from the HW35 and HW55 on the HW98 - then it would have been a winner with that lovely adjustable stock !
