Hawkeye in .257 Roberts? NIB?

[RoninPA]

Had a guy contact me and said he had a line on a NIB Hawkeye in .257 Roberts. He didn't send me any other info. Told him that we would need the s/n and and photos of the box and shipper and any other info he could gather to be able to give any kind of a price estimate.

where any Hawkeyes made in this configuration??

What I didn't think about was a a Hawkeye (HM77R) rifle. Never entered my mind as all we had been talking about for a while was revolvers. I sent him a message to get him to clarify.
