Magnum length actions are made for H&H length cartridges.

Holland & Holland Co. and other British makers, started using magnum mauser actions [which initially were exclusively supplied to John Rigby & Co.]
With the decades following WW-II , they began putting long magnum chamberings on modified std. length mausers simply because of the shortage
of true magnum length Oberndorf actions.

When J.Roberts & Sons were contracted to build Rigby rifles in 1970s, they utilised the Brno 602 action.

These days there is ample supply of new manufacture true magnum length genuine M98 design feature actions [ either in-house or outsourced]
not to warrant using a std. action.

The advantage of the CZ is that it has a true _undercut extractor design just like the M98.
Although in more recent times folks waffle on about 'CRF',...Reliable Extraction was always a design strong point made about the Mauser 98.
