25 from a hundred should be 75.

I’m pretty sure it was 1975 when they switched to forend caps and tenon so it was made to pre-75 specs...Interesting.

I think the studded front band was added later?

If it starts busting band screws don’t despair. A high strength 6/32x1 1/2” with nylon nut will put an end to it. An 8/32 will require wallowing out the band holes a tiny bit. Some folk never have a problem whatsoever but I stress mine a lot. Does that one have a little metal flipper on the cartridge carrier to raise the back end of the cartridge? They did that for only a few years.
