We have a vintage Winchester Pre-64 Model 70 SUPER GRADE 257 Roberts and the condition is fantastic...
This is one of the prettiest rifles I have had the pleasure of handling.
Wood condition is beautiful, has a few dings but is in excellent shape.
Bluing is fantastic and looks better than most newer rifles in a gun shop.
All numbers match (Bolt to receiver).
Under the barrel its stamped 25R 48 (Im assuming that this is for 257 Roberts and 48 for the year the barrel was produced.)
The serial # is 87,139 and I think this works out to around 1950, maybe 1948 ??? Don't know. Any idea??
Rifling is perfect and deep looking.
There is not a hint of corrosion on this rifle, not even a speck.
I'm trying to find out the value of it.
I see quite a few start out at $3,000 on gun broker and I have heard of some going as high as $10,000....
I've looked at theirs and this one is in better shape than all the ones I have seen, especially considering the excellent shape of the original bluing and this stock has not been stripped or sanded from what I can tell and I know of the original owner and the step son that owns it.
I've uploaded some pictures and have more photos of this rifle if a person would like to see a particular area, I most likely have it.
....Thanks for looking and let me know what you think.
PLEASE DISREGUARD THE LITTLE WHITE SPACER IN THE PHOTOS, IT'S REMOVED FROM THE RIFLE NOW.... I GUESS THE OWNER ADDED IT TO ADD BLING.. SEE BOTTOM PHOTO.
