The general advice has always been to mount a scopesight as low as the sight and shooter’s head position will permit. With that type of rifle, it defaults to as low as the sight will permit because no scope can be mounted as low as the iron sights.
I can tell at sight a Chassepot rifle from a javelin.

Thanks guys. Looks like low rings will work. Now to pick the scope!
