Don't discount Weaver bases and rings to get you the lowest mounting possible for your scope. I too detest high mounted scopes on a rifle where the need, or wish, to use the iron sights is a consideration and I also don't like iron sights raised up like Mt. Everest to get a sight picture over fancy but impractical scope bases. The original Oberndorf Mausers have relatively low iron sights and while my first thought was to not alter the bolt handle on mine but still have a scope option, I did manage to achieve all this as shown below. The head position for scope use is almost the same as for the iron sights when the Leupold 2x EER scope is removed.
