Usually that "duffle cut" was put under the barrel band so it would hide it. But duffle cuts are very common, and efect the price only a little bit. But anything with a duffle cut is usually a "bring back. Yes, papers would make it just a little more valuable, but not much.
Big thing on your Mauser is, it is a "white glue" laminated stock. That is a little harder to find. They used white glue to glue their plys together. Very quickly they realized white glue was not water proof. Yeah, not good in the rain!. They went to red glue after that. So there is not many of them. And 1944 is the year they used white glue (same as mine

Mismatched bolt to the rest is common, as they made them remove the bolts when they surrendered at the end of WWII. Bolts went in one pile and the rest in another. Probably had some battle damage sometime and had the mag repaired. Stock set to the barrel seems right as the white glue and the barrel year seem to match up.
$350!!!!! If nothing matched and it was beat up and had two duffle cuts would have been a cheap price for any Mauser. You did really well!
Sweet looking and very clean Mauser!

PS: Look here on yours, you should see the lamination.
