Is there any way to tell a magnum action from a photo like this where the rifle does not have a cross bolt?




Not very easily unless you can see the placement of the front action screw - where it screws up into the underside of the front ring. Of course knowing it’s a commercial action and not a military variant helps as well because some military actions have a long front ring that can trick you in old photos. Then the style of bottom metal helps if you can clearly see that.
