I have one in 308, mine still has the full length 22" barrel and is factory threaded at 15x1.
I was looking at getting a Tikka so borrowed my sons and found they just don't fit me very well, picked up the Mauser and it just felt right. I bought mine new at a very good price as it had been sitting on the shelf for ages, it shoots well, feeds well and no issues with the magazine. Only downside is the mag is a little short if you want to seat your projectiles long.
I also found mine prefers the Nosler Ballistic Tips in 165g rather than the 150's I tried first. So far haven't tried any other projectiles.
