OK, I’ll bite.

Model 98 Mauser small ring actions have the following in common: a 1.300in / 3.302cm ring diameter and a .980in / 2.4892cm barrel shank. They are further broken down by action length: standard length being 7.835in / 19.9009cm between receiver screws, the intermediate length being 7.620in / 19.3548cm between receiver screws, and the true short being 7.225in / 18.35149cm between receiver screws.

M98 Mauser Small Ring Standard Length Actions:
3.315in / 8.4201cm internal magazine length
Commercial Husqvarna, Commercial Oberndorf, KAR98, G33-40, VZ33, and VZ47 Commercial Brno/Czechoslovakia
3.340in / 8.4836cm internal magazine length
VG47 Commercial Brno/Czechoslovakia

M98 Mauser Small Ring Intermediate Length Actions:
3.118in / 7.91972cm internal magazine length
M1910 Mexican FN/Mexico and M1936 Mexican FN/Mexico

M98 Mauser True Short Length Action:
2.725in / 6.9215cm internal magazine length
Commercial KURZ [this action is extremely rare]

If your M98 Mauser small ring action is in good mechanical shape without safety flaws; e.g., over-grinding of ring diameter to remove military caches or over-grinding of the feed ramp to fit .375 H&H Magnum length cartridges, it should handle any .532 case diameter or smaller case diameter cartridge that will fit and function within it’s action and magazine length limitations if the cartridge is loaded within CIP CUP or CIP PSI pressure limits.

Magazine capacity should be 5-down with the 9.3x62 and 3-down with the 9.3x64.

I support the proposition that a competent gunsmith should inspect all surplus military actions for safety issues and perform action alterations to the feeding ramps, and bolt face if needed, if the action is being re-barreled to a cartridge case other than the original specification case, as well as re-barreling the action.
