Found this in the pre-owned section of the "World's Foremost Outfitter" website. Let's have some fun in postulating what caliber this could be. ;-)

30-06. But why doesn't the "outfitter" have one of their gunsmiths make a chambercast before they put it up for sale???

I agree. Turn a quick buck and keep it the original .303.

Yep; 303 was my guess as well.

Yes it is a No4 Enfield with the stripper clip loader bridge removed, almost guaranteed to be in .303 Brit, these have one of the best sporter magazine I have used, I have Santa Fe MKIII mags for use in my Speeders when hunting with them.

We have 100s of No4 & MKIII Parker & Hale sporters here in different grades.

Some No.4s were made in 308 weren’t they? I would still bet on 303.

Yes some but I don't think Golden State did any conversions on them, still a little border line & need more work on ejector and/or special magazine .

I worked in a Cabela's Gun Library for several months. They can only list the caliber marked on the firearm. No marking, no caliber is listed.

I had or might still have one exactly like it, mine is a 303.

Interesting conundrum. My first thought was, for some reason, 45/70. I have seen a couple.
But, most likely 303.
