Somewhere close to a 1961, I believe.

A picture would help with the stocks/grips.

Do they have a slightly raised diamond shaped area around the screw?

As they should have. If you take them off they may have the
serial number of the gun on them.

ETA: If they fit so as to be able to read the serial number
on the grip frame with them on they are called Magna stocks.

Weatherby has target stocks on his.
Are you sure it's a three in barrel?
Measure from the front of the cylinder for barrel length.

Just to muddy the water, how about a K-Target from up North in Hot-Lanta.

I'll be back in a minute Curtmini14. I have a hard enough time doing one thing at a time.

No expert here, but pictures are a must, outside hands on, for a good evaluation.
