Probably. The .257 Bob has a case length of 2.233, longer than the .308 Winchester (2.015). However, on a Model 700, measure distance between the receiver screws. If it is 6.5 inches, THAT rifle is a short action. 7.35 inches, long action.

Is a Winchester model 70 257 Roberts a short or long action?

It is a long action that has limiting spacers included. The magazine has a spacer at the rear and the bolt has a different bolt stop that prevents the bolt from moving to the full long action length. So I have been told.
