DO NOT FIRE!!! GUNSMITH!!! PROJECT!!! Component value only!!! Good looking Rem 1917 Sporterized '06 although i hestitate to even call it a 30-06. Chamber is horribly oversized/eroded Tried three shells finally one fire and terrible rupture of the case! Good looking but selling for value of components including desireable Redfield reciever sight. $225 shipped to lower 48. Pics to follow.
If the action is good, I would be interested in it. I need a donor gun for a 35 Whelen project. Let me know if you think it would work for that. I don't have PM priveleges, but please email me at chrisfrnsnyahoo.com
Was also going to ask if it had been opened up? A chamber casting would have been easy and cheap enough to do and to know exactly what you are dealing with. Any way you look at it Kenster got a fair deal here.
I don't want a pickle, I just wanna ride my motorcycle
It probably is a proper 300 h& h magnum looking at the case. I had thoughts of d&t for scope use, or re-barreling if its not a 300 h&h . I had an enfield at one time in 404 Jeffries express , it was a great rifle! Having said all that, I will gladly buy the rifle , unless you really have sellers remorse and would have kept it knowing it was something other than 06 chambering. If you were to keep it, hopefully you would not re list it for sale . Anyway, I will gladly buy it, or you keep it, up to you. I dont want to benifit from someones mistake.

Good job kenster. The rifle is a good job and seller didn't have a clue
My exact thoughts. That's what it looks like to me. Definitely not a 308 Norma mag, like someone else alluded to. Looks like a nice rifle. Maybe the buyer can get it figured out. I'd leave it as a 300H&H, or rechamber to 300WBY at this point. Looks like it has potential of being a sweet rifle though.
