Sorry, but no. It would only serve to lower the value of the rifle as opposed to replacing the barrel with a proper one. There are also some problems with the taper of the cartridge and the feeding from the magazine which may also require modifications to the receiver. I am sure that many 1903 actions have been chambered in 308 in sporters.
