257:That Roberts is very nice. The barrel contour is a Tom Burgess contour. Others copied it.
Very slick rifle!

first one I sadly no longer own, a 7x57 by Gary Goudy, still the most beautiful stock I've ever seen in person. ![[Linked Image]](https://i126.photobucket.com/albums/p116/handwerk/7x57 005_zpscieraj6s.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](https://i126.photobucket.com/albums/p116/handwerk/M70 7x57 005_zpsufozh4nd.jpg) Another, a .270 my dear friend John stocked years ago and passed it on to me, to be enjoyed in my family for generations to come.. ![[Linked Image]](https://i126.photobucket.com/albums/p116/handwerk/Mac 270_zps9fpemfjq.jpg)

Thanks Bob. There are no maker markings of any kind. That 257 is a thing of beauty. That stock just pops out at you. I like it!!
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

Looks great!! Now I'm drooling...  The m8 4x even looks good on there. I'm going to go and shoot my lowly ol 270 fwt. tomorrow to help get my mind off your rifle...  . Very nice rifles guys. I'd love to have a nice stock on any of my pre 64's. One of these days, I hope to get a Biesen or similar. I'd probably be scared to take it into the woods though..

Absolutely beautiful. Who did the work? Sam Marino of Beaumont Texas back in the 1960's, he's deceased.

Thanks Brad. That rifle is one of my all time favorites. Here's a little more of a full length view. ![[Linked Image]](https://i1187.photobucket.com/albums/z395/BobinNH1/20150119_134318.jpg)
