Ackley used a standard M98 Mauser with the large dovetail cut on top of the front bridge.
This one, with the round used in the blowup tests, blew the barrel and top of the bridge off with the same load & ctg. that gave "normal" pressure in some of the other actions, among them a P17, iirc. I think the round was a .270 magnum probably on a belted 2 1/2" case - just a guess. So there you have the combination of what might or might not be be an overload for a normal action, with the larger diameter magnum case.

I expect it will be just fine with factory level loads.
