Locating the front base on the barrel also avoided cutting a dovetail in the receiver ring, once a common practice, without increasing the height of the front base.

Thats a nice looking rifle!
The action is a DWM, probably a 1909 Argentine action.
I dont know much about the 2 458 but in a standard length Mauser seems to make a lot of sense. Could probably run some heavy bullets and use all of the case capacity in that magazine.
