Nope, not grandma's rifle--which is a Remington 722 .257 Roberts--which I would pass along to family rather than sell.

She was given the .257 by her second husband. My grandfather died during the Depression, and she finally remarried in the early 1950's, to a guy who owned the hardware store in Denton, Montana. He could get firearms wholesale, and gave her the new .257--probably in 1953, the year the date-code indicates it was made.
