Since I've been snowed in the past few days I decided to revisit an old idea I had concerning rechambering an old Lee Enfield that I have (No 4 mk1). It's an old sporter I acquired a few years back cleaning out my grandparents house and I feel like doing something unique to it. Having done some research already I've been lead to believe that the Enfield action isn't overly strong like the mausers, which is why I originally dropped the idea a few years ago. However, after even more research, I've learned that these old warhorses can be chambered in a number of interesting cartridges, including the .375 Nitro, .405 Winchester, and to my surprise, 45-70. Now, the 45-70 will be easier to find ammo for, I'm more interested in the 375 and 405, partially because they share the same rim size, and because of the unique factor. So, anyone have aNY experience with a build like this and/or cartridges?
Thanks
