For you that shoot this combo ,
how smooth are they and how much draw length is acceptable with this combo?

My Bear "A" with number 3 limbs is much smoother than my Widow MA and both are 51# 60". I'm guessing the Widow's longer riser with shorter limbs is the difference. Both are fine for 28" draw and the Bear should be good an inch or so past that.

Maybe, I don't have enough bows for comparison, but I can't tell the difference between an "A"/3 and "B"/1. Been shooting both for 30 years. My only preference is 60".

I tend to agree with Daniel. I have both and to me, there's little difference in the feel of the draw between them. My draw is about 28 inches. I think either would handle 29 inches with little noticeable difference. At 30 inches, you'll begin to feel some stack.

I will agree with Daniel as well, but I shoot my "B"/1 better because of the longer sight window.

Nobody can tell you that answer.
What most folks call "stack" really isn't if you do a force/draw curve on the bow. It's a perception that folks get due to either the increased string angle on the fingers, or from reaching a draw weight they aren't comfortable with.
To actually know you will need to experience it yourself.

I know this is true , I don’t have a A riser but guess I’ll buy one to test.

I really don't think you will notice any difference. It's always been my experience that as long as bow length is the same I really can't tell a significant difference based on working limb length.
Some times the shorter working limb will feel like it has more preload or early draw weight.

I have that set up and I draw 30". I don't shoot the weight I used to due to shoulder issues , but with 42 lb. limbs, I'm drawing around 45-46 lbs. at my draw length according to my old bow scale.

Thanks, I have a longer draw too and have a couple B risers 64”
But would like to try the A for a 60” hunting bow

I use that set-up and I'll say that I did notice the short-riser, long limb variation to be slightly more comfortable than a one-piece Bear Kodiak Custom that was also 60" but had a longe riser and shorter working limb in the same draw weight.
That's not a truly fair comparison, as a one- piece bow will certainly feel differently in other ways, and I was not a fan of the grip on the one-piece, either. But, for both pulling about 35# at 28" I preferred the A riser/#3 size combo.
