Husqvarna Model 640 and the "strengthened" Mauser 96 action

Has anyone here used one of the Husqvarna "strengthened" versions of the Mauser Model 1896 [96] action for a custom rifle? These would be the Husqvarna Model 640 that do not have the thumbcut for the stripper clips. They were in a few models such as the 640 in 8x57mm

I am considering using one for a custom rifle to fit my very long build. Since I loved the military action so much on the Swede 96, and I have seen excellent custom jobs on that action I was considering the commercial version.
