Well, I'll try. Hope I can help.
While I can't tell you about the specific serial number, I can tell you that there are two possibilities. First, there are better than 2,000,000 model 1917 rifles created by Winchester/Remington(Eddystone) since WWI.
They were originally manufactured for the British who needed an upgrade from their old Short Magazine Lee Enfield(SMLE). So you could be looking at an original WWI era British rifle.
Second, after WWI, Remington redesigned the rifle (still in 30.06), and during WWII, it was used regularly by most units acting as "backup" (i.e. mortar teams, infantry preferred the 1903). So, you could also be looking at a later model.
How to tell the difference? The easiest way is to notice the early model had "ears" on the rear sight. The remanufacture did away with them.
Winchester, "Remington" Illion NY, Marked Remington and (Remington) "Eddystone" Plant Marked Eddystone.Three manufactuing plants. In 1930 ,Remington started making the 1917 in a civilian model. It was the Model 30. It was made without the "ears" that protected the battle sights. It also had a better finish and stock.
