Krieghoff Trumpf 16x16x8jrs

Well I have come to conclusion that my search for Montage Rings for this Rifle is going to be a long drawn out process with a lot of luck mixed in. And since patience is NOT one of my virtues I am investigating other avenues...

First I do what to say that I took the advice of a board member and slugged the barrel last night and it is .323 so definately it is a 8x57jrs. I was amazed how deep the rifling is...

For the scope rings;

Last nite while sitting in my shop I started going through extra rings I have in box and found a set of ruger rings that looked like they may work with some modifications. I got them to fit after milling off the stop and thining the rear clamps slightly to clear the barrel. Unfortunately these are not quick release. I did some digging & I noticed there are some guns that still use 16mm Rings (Tikka and CZ527). So I was thinking something along the lines of the Warne quick release for the CZ527 those would be more the European angle for the dovetail I would think.....

I know they are going to require some modifications and I am game for that. An $80 investment, even if it fails, is much better than $1,500 and here in Minnesota this time of the year I need some inside projects to keep from going stir crazy....

Anyhow any suggess would be appreciated.

Here is a link to some pics of the gun,mounts and dimensions: PICS

Thanks,
DonT
