How about the 405 win necked down to .30 cal with a 40 deg shoulder and .30" neck length? Put that one in a P14 enfield action with a 1917 enfield 30-06 mag box. Feed rails should work as is? Maybe?

It would be pretty close to a .30-40 Ackley Improved.

The 405 is basically a stretched 30/40. HTH, Dutch.

A bit longer than the 30-40 imp. Not a bad idea though.
