In this YouTube video posted on June 15, 2023, a firearms specialist going by the username Mike Duke has converted and test-fired a Hotchkiss Mle 1914 machine gun that has been rechambered for .30-06 Springfield. As Mike Duke explained to another YouTube user in the comments, the original parts were damaged 7×57mm Mauser parts which he had repaired to .30-06 specifications. The original barrel has been bored out and a new .30-06 barrel was inserted inside the original. As of June 15, 2023, Mike Duke has promised to post another video in the future showing more details on how he converted the Hotchkiss Mle 1914 to .30-06 Springfield.
