Hole spacing Mauser 98 rear base
Leupold manufactures a rear base(set #52370) that is made to mount on an Mauser rear bridge with the charger hump intact. I know that this has narrower spacing than the standard .5" hole spacing and is pretty close to .325", but I would like to know the actual measurements. I would also like to know if there are other manufactures who use the same spacing.

As I recall, the last one I used was .325".
