Looks like the Magnums barrels have more space between them ?

So what I'm gathering is that not all 10 gauges needed a beefed up action for the 3.5" . Ithaca did because it didn't have that bottom lug . Which is odd because I'm pretty sure that was common on 10 ga 2 7/8 guns . At least ones I have seen . Do you have a picture of the Super 10 and NID 10 mag lugs ?
