I would personally prefer a CRF rifle, so I'm more into the M70 Featherweight Classic in 6.5x55 SE.
Don't really blame you, but the Roberts wasn't available in a CRF rifle..
Those 6.5X55 Classics are bringing MUCHO-BUXOS - even the blue/walnuts in that cartridge are going in the $900+ range.. I've got a NIB Classic SS/Walnut 6.5X55 - I think I'll hang onto it for a few years yet... Those are bringing in excess of ten Franklins, even in this economy...
Better than money in the stock market...
