9.3x64 Oal

Friends:
I've just completed my 9.3X64 bbl'd. action, welded handle on, opened bolt-face etc. and works like a charm (yes, in a 1/2 Mauser test stock it does kick) but it ia a soft big push, not a sharp Tyson jab.
I'm looking for ctg, oal and cannot fint a dm.
I'm thinking of establishing it to roughly 3.335" - just short of 3.4".
The PTG reamer allowed lots of bullet space even for the 286 or 300 gr bullets!
Can some of you critique this idea.
Harry B.

ctg. aol.

Dear Sirs;
On Chuck Hawks site he had the ctg. OAL; for the German 9.3X64.
If anyone would need it it's 3.37 if I remember - of course that's only.003 short of the 98 guard opening (on some mausers).
I'll need to open it up slightly.
