Struggling to like my BSA Stutzen

[Blackrider]

Try the Sportsmatch mount with the extended rear, it suits Airsporters and Mercurys especially. I think it's the OP12C but not certain ?
I use one of these with a period Japanese 4x32 Tasco on my RB2 .22 Stutzen and I like it !

Similar set up on my Mk5, with the Sportsmatch mount and a period Bushnell 6x32.

Knibbs appears to sell the rear sight (which I think is a Williams of some kind). Or you could use a Williams receiver sight.

Isn't the front sight the standard Airsporter/Scorpion/Mercury/etc one? That shouldn't be hard to track down.

Knibbs are out of stock on the rearsight, if anyone has any leads on one, please let me know, I will give it a go open sighted.



Cheers!

This is how the scope on my Stutzen RB2 is mounted. I don't know who adapted this mount but I have a spare!

Yep, Someone ground the rear part to make it reachback instead of a standard one piece!!

I recently bough a steel Apel reachback mount for one of my Airsporters or Mercury, Still haven't gotten round to fitting it yet so can't include a pic..

The Raised Maxi grip rails on the Stutzen, Superstar and certain other Beesas are actually a 14mm mount, I had two Lightnings and both came with the wrong mounts as they were standard and I couldn't adjust the windage enough (T'was fully 5" wide to the right with full left adjustment!!)


Found a pic of the Apel but not fitted to a gun!


I bought these mounts some years ago that were made in Ozzie land, They can be centred for windage but aren't reachback so don't really help much

I actually bought a reach back two piece Sportsmatch mount set a few weeks ago, Can't remember what I did with it, Looked through my pics and it doesn't seem to be on any of my guns

Just a thought, and please correct me if I am on the wrong track, but how about a long eye relief scope. I bought a Burris Timberline on this site and was amazed at the length of eye relief. There must be scopes out there that will fit the bill
