Unfortunately, this old gal has some issues. Looks like it was once a reasonably done sporter from, I'm guessing, the early 60's. Aftermarket stock. Bluing is beautiful on the receiver and bolt, makes me wonder if it was redone at some point, barrel is another story. SA dated 10-18 flaming bomb barely visible, has to be a re-barrel I think. And the worse part? Receiver has been drilled and tapped for a period Redfield peep sight. It's well done, but unfortunate. I'm no expert, but it appears to have a NM bolt.

I can post some pics if your still interested, but it will probably only make you sad...
