I bought the comercial scope mount for my M1, and it works very well, except for the above mentioned weird angles that you have to use with your head.

You also need to realize that with shooting the 30/06 with a scope, control of the rifle is important. Treat this as a 22-250 or .223 Rem, and the scope will jump up and give you a scar on your forehead.
