I have sent a couple photos to Fred to post but they aren't really very clear to see the close detail. The top bolt is this threads G&H, the middle one is a Niedner and the bottom one is an Oberlies.

I can't wait to see the Oberlies picture. I don't see many of these except mine. I don't have a lot of interest in custom rifles other than Oberlies, can't afford them, but I do like original or not so original Springfield sporters.

They all look like they were done by the same method. Now, what is that method? Is any custom maker turning out work like this today?

These closer photos look more like "snail trails" than a scraped effect. You can do snail trails easily by mounting a hard, pointed stone in a mandrel and turning it in a drill press. Coat the bolt with oil and hold it lightly against the point, moving it in random directions. It takes some time to get much coverage. It leaves a surface that holds lube quite well.

Take a look at the scraping pattern on a mill or lathe to see how it is done.
Harder bolts, smaller pattern. It can be very attractive.
