Oh the scope works fine, its just a fixed scooe and not as nice as the 4x12 Leupold VS3 on the 270.

Edgar its a double lever. You are the first one who has told me it is value added. The dealer i boight it from said it was the reason it wasnt more expensive.

The "Bear Cub" IS a Kollmorgen unless it is a later Redfield Bear Cub, which is the same scope. Leave it on there. It is now a "vintage" scope.

In name only, not in glass quality.

That was a lucky break for you. The Jaeger side mount was a copy of the G&H except in aluminum. Just about anything G&H is a plus. Only problen is finding rings if you're changing scope tube sizes, from 7/8" to 1", etc.
William, I have an Alaskan on a '57 M70 .257, and it's just too small a field of view for a long shot. Looks a bit odd too.
