Suggestions for Scout scope mount on an old Mauser 45/70

Yeah, it’s a neat old gun in great shape. Thank you Jackie and thank you Gary, for letting me buy it. I just put a thick Pachmeyer pad on it. We’ll see if I can handle it.
If you stick to the lighter bullets 300-350 grain it’s quite pleasant to shoot and the one I had was very accurate When you start to get above 450grain and start to push the powder it can be punishing esp with a hard plastic butt plate. The last one I did was in 40/70 SBN lotsa fun
