Pre-64 Winchester Model 70 Bolt Action Rifle in Scarce 257 Roberts Caliber

Manufactured in 1950 during the transition period (late 1945-51). Hooded ramp front sight, rear sight removed with fill block added and scope blocks on the receiver. Standard markings with Winchester factory proof on the left side of the barrel and receiver at the breech. Straight receiver tang, late style safety, trigger shoe and polished bolt numbered to the gun. Checkered pistol grip stock has sling swivels and checkered steel buttplate.

ConditionVery fine. The rifle retains 85% plus faded original blue finish with a few streaks of gray, some minor high edge wear (heavier on the buttplate) and some minor muzzle wear. There is a small patch of light spotting on the barrel underside. The stock is fine with some minor pressure dents and scratches with most of the finish remaining and a few minor blemishes in the overall crisp checkering. The forearm screw is missing. Mechanically excellent.
