I've always fancied one of these and I was lucky enough to find one for a good price and in .243". The scope came with it as well and its the first time I have ever seen anything like it. I think its an excellent idea to keep the scope centre mounted close to the barrel.

Thanks. Will have to measure the barrel later now you've said that, it was produced around 1974 so maybe short barrels were not quite as fashionable back then.
