define your create mask as 0760. Create mask does not give or add permissions to files, it takes them away. Ergo, by removing the execute bit from the create mask, Samba always removes the execute bit. Maybe what you wanted is "force create mode"?. Force Create mode 0660 would ensure that user and group always get read/write permission to the file.
