Does anyone know the overall height of the #3276 style “A” hood used on all Model 65s and the 92 and 94 carbines with the ramp front sight?

The actual drawing dimensions are preferred (if available) but physical measurements will work also, as long as they are consistent between rifles.

Thanks in advance!

My Model 65 hood measures .659 in. high. My Model 92 carbine hoods measure .567 in. high. The slots in the covers are different. The rifle slot is narrower than the carbine slot. RDB

Thank you for the compliment I have been told by those in the know, that they are “just re-barreled carbines”. So only valuable to me as collectors. The bottom 25-20 is actually pictured in the Madis Book. The middle 25-20 has a bolt peep and the top 44 W.C.F. is unusual “because Winchester never made a short magazine ramp front sight carbine”.
