Contessa, in Italy, make a Picatinny rail especially for the Anschutz Match 54 receiver and it is available as a flat or angled rail. If memory serves correctly, they have 10 and 20 degree options. I have never used Contessa products but they have an excellent reputation and the UK agent is also the UK Schultz and Larsen agent, which should tell you something.
You can use the Anschutz 6811 scope rail provided your rifle has the dovetail cuts the full length of the receiver. This will allow you to get the scope far enough forward for prone, the rails noted above are good for benchrest but usually dont work well for prone. This is commonly used in Smallbore prone and 3P matches for the any sight phases where scopes are allowed. If your kid is young enough, find a smallbore junior program and sign him/her up, it is still a great sport and still an NCAA sport.
Shot open sights deep into my 40’s, eyes are gone these days. If It doesn’t have a scope, wont work for me. Trying to have best of both worlds. Looking forward to teach my kid to shoot With peep sights
They have what you're looking for.
I really don’t know why i needed the 20 moa. I do know that T36 don’t have a lot of elevation and windage adjustment. That was what i attributed it to. My T24 that I originally had on it had no problems.
@Dstoenner Correction noted, thank you David. I guess I would revert to the DIP Anschutz 54 rail. Feed the rail over the back bridge until the "claws" on the rail for the dovetail contact the front bridge and use something on the face of the bridge that will mark the rail indicating how much of the claw needs to be removed. Use Dremel judiciously and finish with mill file or emery cloth. Using filler of choice bed the front of the rail to the bridge. Remove, clean up front screw holes, apply adhesive of choice, reposition rail, let cure, insert screws with blue LocTITE and wait. Not elegant but it should provide a "relatively" stable platform for rings.
The stock is the original issue Anschutz prone stock. I added the adjustable buttplate.
But a Boliver scope is not compatible with BKL mounts and needs mounts on the barrel as you have now. Not sure what the offical name of the dovetail mounts are.
That appears to be a stunning period 54. Is it as nice as it looks? What is the year and model? Of course the important question, how does it shoot?
