That diagram is a bit fuzzy.

Is that 1.760 or 1.750 for case length?

You'd have thought they'd have updated to CAD based drawings by now.

Are you after max case length or trim length?

Trim length, which I believe is commonly (according to Google) 1.750 but the case length measurement is a bit blurry and could be either 1.750 or 1.760.

I could do something obvious like convert the metric dimensions...Well what do you know? 1.760
