    Soon To Be Mine

    Inbound from Idaho. Savage 99E in .30-30, kinda scarce in that caliber. PAX

    Cool. Congrats. Looks to be in great shape.

    And you can build rounds using pointy bullets.

      Wow! What a find! Is that recoil pad original? Great looking rifle no matter.

          Nice! Those 99's are my favorite rifle cartridge lever actions!

                Thank you Gunners. I have another one, a 99F in.308 that's really the bomb. I'm shooting pointy boolits only in this guy. PAX

                  Pointy bullets make a difference in a .30-30. I had a Savage 340 bolt action that I loaded with 130 gr Hornady and 125 gr Sierra spitzer bullets - 150 gr bullets were too long for the magazine. They really flattened the trajectory past 150 yards and worked well on CA deer.

                    I have a couple hunnerd rounds of Hornady LEVERevolution that I got garage sailing. I don't remember what weight. Of course, it's not condor friendly. Having the boolits was a big impetus for picking up the Savage, even tho I have a 325. Not the same cool factor. PAX

                      I had no idea they made the 99 in .30-30, other than the earlier models. Excellent find!

                          I made a mistake that the Savage guys pointed out, it's a '66. PAX
