Having problems to find mount for my TRG:

My scope, custom build Zeiss Diavari, has 24mils of travel, 19.5 in single turn.
In order to get whole BDC scale in use I would need 11mils or 39MOA cant in mount.

Spuhr only has 7mil/24MOA version, what other alternatives there are out there?
I think I would be able to make it work (still possible to zero) with 40MOA base. 35MOA mount would be second choise if 40 is not available.
My current mount has around 7.5mils cant, so therefore scope bottoms before I get last 3.75mils from turret.

Looking for direct fitting to reciever, will glue picatinny on in only as last resort.
So recommendations of both versions would be highly appericiated.

near from canada makes a 40 moa picatiny rail for trg rifles... and the rings are top quality...

Thanks -took a look on their webpages. They suck, so will have to drop email about their excact models.

You better adjust your current mount to get the tilt you want. That is by far the smarest at this time.
That or changing your scope to a 34mm as there then is much more options.

What about using the factory TRG Optiloc Quick release mount and then shim the rear ring to get the MOA cant exactly how you want it..

Optilocks with 2 ring IMO arent for arctic usage in heavy-recoil light rifle such as TRG42. Plastic gets slippery. So Sako QD is not for me.
Actually my current mount uses same rings, but got three instead of two. So cant re-allign them.

Adjusting current setup is possible allright -but this would have to be done with plates between mount and reciever? Hmmm.
Changing scope is not option on this rifle. Scope+rifle is FDF package.

I'm against extra parts that typically cause problems sooner or later - but must say that Near picatinny rail looks pretty solid. 6 mounting screws and plenty of recoil lugs.
Perhaps that and then some solid picatinny mount like Near?

Its easy to adjust current setup by turning down underside on the two frontrings and lap the mount afterwards so you get it even.
Should take no more than 30 minutes to an hour totally.

Current setup is already too low, I have difficulties to pull mirage band under objective housing. It is milled already once, but did not get enough cant. Its close, but not perfect.
 
Re: 11mil/30mm mount for TRG

Damn, are Near and Spuhr really only aftermarket mounts that go directly to reciever?
Did not realize proper TRG mounts are that hard to get.
