Man,I don't know what's available,but since it isn't an ultralight rig where every ounce counts,I would try to find a picatinny rail I could use.Getting the rail and rings is a bit more of an investment but it will enable you to get perfect ER with just about any scope you would want. Here you go. https://steyrarms.com/accessories/picatinny-rails.html

You will probably need High scope rings to keep the bolt handle from dragging on the eye bell portion of the scope when you operate the bolt. Otherwise you will scrap up the scope.

I have medium height rings on all of my Steyrs, all with 56mm objective scopes with 30mm tubes. Zero problems with clearance on either end.

I've always heard stories about the bolt handle needing higher rings than on other rifles. I have however handled several Steyr rifles with 40mm objective scopes mounted just off the barrel and the bolt cleared just fine.

I'd go with Talley or Warne mounts. Never have had an issue with either.
