Use a drafting divider to index on a center line.

Measure overall action length and each section's width by measuring from 
the left edge of the first
wippen to the left edge of the last wippen. Between sections, measure 
between the last and the first.

Map it out in pencil, correct if needed.  If you have the original rail, 
and the screws won't come out;
clamp the new rail alongside and with a small square index the new holes 
off the side of the old screws.

ot really too complicated.
