Is this beavertail legal?

Over time I've been touching up my grip as I realize air pockets in it. It feels really nice now but I'm unsure if this long of a beavertail that touches is allowed. It doesn't touch my wrist and there is no downsweep from the center bottom of the tail

By as much as I can see from the one picture and your description I would check that it would fit in the 420mm x 200mm x 50mm equipment control box and assure that there is no downward sweep moving backward from the web of the hand. See page 383.

I see the limit for 25m and that I can’t have downward curves opposite side of the thumb but is my tail considered a downward bend of the longitudinal axis? Do I need it flat or is curved down longitudinally allowed per top right picture on page 383?

The tail is my attempt at Cesare Morini’s custom grip as described here with photos: viewtopic.php?t=43166

Except his is wood and flat and mine is quikwood and has a downward curve longitudinally

It looks legal.
The limit for 25m doesn't aplly at 10m.
