Seems to me that ...
... it's a cartridge matter.
Whatever the firearm, the cartridge primer needs to be indented by so-much. The sum of headspace plus so-much is your required firing pin protrusion.

good on you for your patience well done photo please of your first animal with it
Mauser field test for firing pin protrusion was it should .at h the notch in the rear v sight.
I'd imagine that would be close for nearly all centerfires, dependent on firing pin diameter maybe
Standard firing pin protrusion for centrefires is .060" (1.5mm near enough) and should have a nice smooth hemispherical nose.
