I posted this on another gun board about a year back and received mixed advice
I have a 1917 enfield (eddystone) and am considering having it rebarreled to .375 H&H. I understand that I would need a bolt from a 1914 enfield (.303) which would match the .375 rim.
Part of the advice I received was that it would be cheaper to by a long action mauser already in .375 h&h (I checked cz and other prices, I don't think so) and some people mourned the loss of a 1917 enfield. However, this is a $100 beater rifle, not a pristine collector. If this is technically feasable, I want to do this in about a year.
Any ideas?
