Speaking of inflation, I just checked the retail price of the Win. Model 70, 257 Roberts, in my 1950 The Gun Digest. It retailed for $124.00. Things have gone up a bit since then, huh? FWIW. L.W.

Disregard my comments about the "extra holes" on the rear bridge. The first number, It looked like a 5 on my iphone.
Then STFU. The rest of your statement is superflous bullshit with no real bearing on this discussion other than to massage your own ego. Suckin' on my titties like you wanted me.

Avg income of a family in 1950 was $3300 a year. Works out to about $1.59 an hour. Dad buying a $124 dollar rifle in 1950 was a big purchase.

My $500 offer still stands Well aren’t you just mr generous 🥰👊. Now knowing that’s a factory D&T barreled action it’s worth more than $500 bucks.

Ok, so evidently I know know about pre 64s, didn’t really think I did, but it’s been confirmed. I was told it was a transition model but the previous owner back when I got it, didn’t matter to me if it was so I didn’t dig to deep on that fact. I did ask on another forum and a few people came up with a couple things on it that seemed like it was a transition model, at this point I don’t even remember what those things were. Also it never clicked with me about the checkering on the stock, I had several other rifles that age with similar looking stocks without checking and it never hit me that all model 70s had checkering. Sorry for not know what I had upfront.
With all that said what would a reasonable value be on a rifle like this? Still a pre 64 257 roberts that shoots good and has a good action with a leupold on it. I’m guessing I’ll be hanging on to it but still open to reasonable offers and opinions, thank you. A good place to ask would be here in the Winchester collectors forums. I'd understand if you don't want to do that with this rifle though.
I try to stick with the basics, they do so well. Nothing fancy mind you, just plain jane will get it done with style. You want to see an animal drop right now? Shoot him in the ear hole. BSA MAGA
