Mauser scope mount receiver holes.

HI All.
I have two rifles that have Mauser 98 actions built by British manufacturers. One is a Parker Hale .404 Jeffery and the other, a very recent purchase, is a Vickers .242
Both receivers have been drilled and tapped for scope mounts. they both have the exact same pattern. That is, two holes drilled in the front of the receiver, spaced .867 inch centre to centre and the rear has only one hole drilled that is 4.27 inches centre to centre from the rearmost front hole.

So its logical to assume that they were designed/drilled and tapped for the same scope mounts.
My question: does anyone know what mounts would suit. I'm hoping to buy some if we can track them down. thanks Hendj
