Hi Tod. Shane has had this action for a LONG time and he's on the other side of the country. I wish I could measure it for you but can't. They use this same action for the 22-250 and 7.62X39. It's gotta be real close to 2.50"
Justsaymoe, the # can be ground off with no problem as long as the SAME # is re applied. In this case the # went on the bottom of the action when the rifle is at the engraver the # will be put back on the side.
