    308 caliber spanish mauser 1916 rebarreling back to 7x57

    So I have a 308 1916 spanish mauser that i was given as a gift and midway usa has 7x57 green mountain barrels for 87 dollars.

    I am wondering if it is feasable to convert this rifle back to it's orginal caliber.

    I am aware that the stell block from the magwell would have to be removed.

    has anyone here done this kind of conversion, have experiance with this or could maybe recommend a gunsmith who works on these

    Also apologies if this topic has already been covered somewere else on the forum

    thank you
    Chris G

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.
