Hello Folks

I have just had a lot of fun shooting my 7x57 Model B. It has a Redfield aperture sight fitted, and an original foresight.

The Redfield will not go low enough (it is touching the bridge) to bring the point of impact to a reasonable place.

The front dovetail is approximately 5.4 mm (very difficult to measure)wide at the base on a transverse cut. I checked in Recknagel but cannot see anything that might fit.

Could anyone tell me the "proper" this dimension for this dovetail, and where I might start to look for a higher foresight.

How would such a site be described in "German" . . . that I might try on egun.de.

Thanks

Foster
