Bavarian / Hogsback Stock - Using a Scope

[Motard]

Aren't Bavarian and Tirolean Alps the crib of hunting valley to valley with scope mounted rifles? If so or better so it is and if the hogback stock was not compatible with optics devices way it is still in so wide use in those places?

Wow! That is gorgeous, I found a Sako 85 in 6.5x55 for sale, but with the regular hunter stock. I was thinking on settling on it, but after seeing this I think I should keep waiting and searching for a Bavarian model.

I love it. The feel of the rifle is solid but slim if that makes sense. I bought this second hand for a good price

Great info, I appreciate the photos! Great looking rifle. I'm not too worried about shooting prone, I can't recall that I've ever had to lay down for a shot while hunting, and all my sighting in and target shooting is done from a bench.

Thanks! I certainly won the wood lottery with it.

My CZ 557 Lux - no problem using scope/cheek weld.

CZ did a great job with this video. Very evocative.
