.257 Roberts Standard Rifle - 1950

This .257 Roberts standard rifle was produced in 1950. This rifle has been a shooter and has a few experience marks from the woods to prove it.  But it has been well cared and will make a nice addition to someone's collection.  The metal retains all original factory finishes and the stock has been expertly restored.  The rifle has no modifications. The rifle grades in NRA very good condition with the metal finishes at 85%-90%. Just 2% of pre-64 model 70 rifles were chambered .257 Roberts, making this chambering scarce and highly collectible.  The stock is a very nicely figured piece of American walnut which has been restored to closely match the factory finish. It has very little evidence of handling with no noteworthy blemishes. There are no cracks gouges, chips, oil stains or other problems in the stock. The original checkering is intact with no issues. The factory steel buttplate is intact with minimal bluing wear. For the metal portions of the rifle, the original bluing is retained
