I am looking for a 1914 or 1917 Enfield for eventual transformation into my .416 Rigby DG rifle. I have heard that some Eddystone rcvrs had bad heat treats, so I would like a Remington or Winchester. Any suggestions as to likely places for reasonable receivers? What would constitute "reasonable" pricing?

Thanks,

John
