I suppose this is a hunting question but I hoped that the milsurp nuts may have the answer.
I teach stalking and work as a hunting guide, I have this client.
I'm sure you all know one like him, keen as mustard depite being very retired. Wants to know everything and paid top dollar for a nationally recognised course then asks me to mentor him. Turns up with an Historic sporter that despite my best efforts he couldnt group.
I agreed to find him another milsurp but thanks to our laws he needed to specify the calibre when he asked for a change on his license (dont get me started)
As I said he is a bit, well ok very senior and a retireed officer. He does listen eventually so I got him interested in 6.5 swede.
He insists that his hunting rifle is a milsurp but he is pretty myopic to be polite.
I have sourced for free a synthetic sporting stock for a swede and we are looking for an M38 to swop into this. Dont panic we wont mangle it, I need to find a decent and secure scope mount that if it requires drilling can be done discretely o even hidden when the original stock goes on. He will want to miss a 6 foot screen at 100 yards on milsurp matches no doubt!
So any ideas about a normal eye relief scope mount? I think it will need to be a decent sized objective lens as well.
Thanks in advance!
 
I would say that a scout type mount with a long eye relief scope would be your best non-gunsmithing option. Everything else I have seen for the M96 action involved drilling and tapping.

Not the first choice by far, he struggles to see the joke sometimes let alone the long eye relief. It looks like drill and tap then!
