I think that slot may be for trigger block safety (e.g. Timney). Seems to be in the wrong location for box release?I’m mostly certain this is for an older Savage with the magazine release button on the side of the stock. What is the center-to-center measurement for the action screws?

It's not for Mauser 98 or Springfield 03A3. Not a Win 70 as those have safety on bolt shroud. What rifle comes with barrel to receiver mounted recoil lug?
I thought that hole was for recoil crossbolt? Photo gives no perspective on exact location of the hole. And yes, if it was a thumper it could have both a barrel lug and crossbolt.
I seem to remember seeing a few older bolt actions that may share the same style magazine release but can’t recall what they were.Side hole is not for crossbolt. It opens into magazine. Must be for magazine release as suggested by Jbotto. Are there other rifles besides Savage with side release box magazine? I don't recall any. Not sure I've ever handled one of those Savages either.
