Howdy,
Jim Wisner has an excellent article on this... it is way early coffee, but it amounts to judicious triming, leaving more than enough to use a 5/8??? mill to radius the corners

you may not need to change the bolt stop, but might need to GRIND (keep it cool) the ejector

Try Gunmaker- The Journal of Custom Gunmaking, May/June/July 1997, Issue #79, Pages 14-17, "Altering Enfield Actions to .416 Rigby and .505 Gibbs" by James Wisner as told to Steve Nelson.

I ordered a reprint from the American Custom Gunmakers Guild website.
