can someone determine the amount of displacement on the ejector spring?

If the ejector is in the rifle, with the bolt stop removed, how much ejector spring is showing?

With the ejector removed and bolt stop in place, what would the the deflection / difference, that the spring arm would be moved?

Thanks.

depends on the spring, original flat? or replacement coils.
has to stick out at least 1/16 to eject case.
the bolt way would keep it from stocking out any further.

The ejector has to stick out a lot more than 1/16 inch, as it enters the ejector slot in the bolt. With the bolt out or fully back, the ejector appears to protrude about .35" from the bolt raceway, though it is hard to get an exact measurement. With the bolt fully or partly in, the ejector rides on the bolt body, so the normal movement is the distance from the outside of the bolt body to just beyond the depth of the ejector cut in the bolt.
