Set triggers are/were pretty common on commercial Mauser actions. Especially those built in Europe. I picked up a Zastava M70 Standard commercial Mauser just a few years ago that had double set triggers.
The most common reason for setting back the barrel is head space issues. 22-250 is known to be a barrel burner so quite possibly the chamber was shot out and then set back.
I’ve owned several commercial Mauser with set triggers over the years.
