I walked into a sweet deal this year and bought an FN Browning Safari Grade in 257 Roberts. On an FN Mauser sporter action. It has a twice stepped down svelte barrel and no open sights. It weighs about seven pounds. Maybe a little less... And it shoots nice too! No evidence of Salt Wood on it.It has an 8L serial number for 1968(?). The is wood lighter colored than most Browning Safari's. The checkering is nicely done. There isn't enough figure in the wood to brag about.
