I picked up a 4 X 26 POSP type scope from http://www.futong.com/catalog/item/2129577/8030125.htm in Vancouver. It was on sale for $95 (50% off regular price of $190).

It is a perfect fit for the A & K SVD.

When installing the mount/scope onto the rail have the nut which compresses the spring quite loose and adjust it in very small increments. ie slide the mount on, close the clamp, if it slides take it off and repeat.Tedious but you will end up with a snug fit that doesn't stress the rail/mount assembly.

Pros .... it is sturdy
looks fantastic, just like the real one.
Red light on reticle works
Zoom works

Cons ..... elevation and windage don't work. They turn, click and move a small piston in and out .... but nothing happens.

No big deal ..... the A & K SVD is so bloody accurate I fire one round and then correct. I have fired the SVD so often I now just correct for the scope fault automatically on the first shot.

I paid $250 for the A & K SVD and $95 for the POSP scope ...... it was a great bargain for the closest I will ever get to owning a Dragunov.
