A little-known fact: On their commercial 9.3x62 and 10.75x68 rifles Mauser Oberndorf used a magazine box about 2.5mm deeper than the standard military actions. the trigger and the screws are longer too. When restocking one of these, you cannot use a "dropin" stock intended for a standard military 98 action or the smaller bore commercial rifles. Instead, you have to use a stock machined for the Magnum action! I learned the hard way!
Thanks for that little snippet Kud, had not heard that interesting fact before. Perhaps explains why I easily get 3+1 404 in my standard Type A shown above. So long since it had the standard trigger I don't recall how low it sat in the trigger bow. The Timney sits up higher as you can see but comes to my finger easily and I would not lengthen.
