What are your home brews?I wouldn't be scared to shoot handloads if the load was published and they weren't max loads.

i wouldn't try to weld one myself,I can weld but not real good at small welding jobs,I just thought a 99 might look good with a large"John Wayne" loop.

chainsaw

Is there a large loop lever replacement for the Savage 99?

chainsaw

It says they have boxer primers,so it is reloadable.Buy a bag and try it out.please post results if you try it.

chainsaw

That fastfire must be a good sight,isee a LOT of them.i,m going to pick one up this summer and try it on my Redhawk.

chainsaw

There should be another letter code stamp.take off the butt stock and i think it will be on the left side somewhere.

chainsaw

Look at the lever pivot and see if there is a small circle with a number and letter in it.there is a letter code chart on the net,cant rember where,that tells manuf year of later models.mine is a 66 and has a letter T.

chainsaw

Found out today that my local gun club will be shooting some silhouettes this season,so,180 LaserCast bullets and 8.0 gr of Unique will be my "knock em over' load.

chainsaw

I drank an "Obsidian Dark"once,once.like drinking gross black syrup.

chainsaw

I always assumed it was more of a manufacturer thing than a rn vs. sp thing.

chainsaw

Yea,I think I am going to put new stocks on it just as soon as I go back to work.

chainsaw

What kind of wood are the blonde stocks made of?

chainsaw

Hi all,I am knocking around the idea of refinishing my model 99.It has the blonde stock with the real hoakie pressed in style checkering.First thing i'd like to do is fix the checkering somehow.I even thought of maybe putting some sort of inlays in place of the checkering.What do you all think?What ...

chainsaw

O.K.,I got this gun shooting about 1.5 moa.Tweaking the speed made another good difference.The old load,40.0 gr of 4064 saw it hitting 2,2.5 moa.Increasing to 42 gr of 4064 brought that down to 1.5 moa.I forgot to throw in the chrono,but ithink they are shooting about 2600 fps.I'll remember the chro...

chainsaw

Evidenttly the gun in the pic is an early 99 with an aftermarket barrel and bad scope mount drill holes.Thanks for the replys fellas'.

chainsaw

Saw a crappy pic of a rifle that looks just like a 99.Guy says there are no markings on this gun except it says 30-30 on top of the barrel behind the rear sight,and a serial number under the reciever just ahead of the lever.I asked if he had taken the wood off to look under the fore arm but he hasn'...

chainsaw

What gun looks just like a Savage 99,but isn't a Savage 99?Has any other manufacturer produced a lookalike?

chainsaw

Well,I have been tinkering a little with the fore arm on this 99e,i hogged out a little material in the barrel channel.i also bought an O-ring and put between the barrel and the wood,over the sling stud.Went to the range and saw a good improvement,with the scope installed,cheap Tasco Pronghorn 4x fi...

chainsaw

That is one nice looking rifle jeepnik.

chainsaw

I got some Nosler 300 grainers today,the cannelure is very far forward compared to Hornady 300's.i can't imagine the load data would be the same for the two.Does anyone have a Nosler manual that could post the load data for H110 powder,velocities too if provided in the nosler Manual.Thank you very m...

chainsaw

I guess I should have read this thread before going out and buying 3 bricks of Thunderbolt.I guess I'll let the kids shoot it all up.

chainsaw

What mount did you use?My rifle is a 94 AE,do they make a one piece top mount for this gun?

chainsaw

Who has a red dot sight on their lever gun?I am thinking of putting one on my Win. 94,.44 mag.Pics?

chainsaw

I don't have any first hand experience,but I have heard they drink a lot of gasoline.

chainsaw

Oh,that'd be great BigSky.i am waiting on a set of fold over scope bases anyway.Thanks!

chainsaw

Mine?I like running a 300 gr Hornady XTP in front of 19.5 gr of H110 out of my '94AE.Same load for my Redhawk.Never shot any game with this load but it is real accurate in both guns.

chainsaw

Thanks Mutt,now if I can get it to shoot good!

chainsaw

Thanks DougB,I may have to find another fore end as mine seems to have been hogged out some in order for the swivel stud to go in straight.

chainsaw

O.k. you 99 experts,I went to the range with the hand guard off and it improved the grouping quite a bit.What are these handguard mods that I hear about?

chainsaw

My son's first deer

chainsaw

Thanks a lot Big Sky,I have been net searching for instructions for the fore end fix.I am going tomorrow and try 41.0 gr of IMR 4064.I am really eager to see if thig gun shoots,I like the look and feel of it and want to make it my go everywhere shoot anything rifle.

chainsaw

I reported above that my 99 made a one hole group at 40 yrds,well,at 100 yrds that group opened up to well over 4".Trying 4064 powder instead of BLc2.

chainsaw

Well,my son and I took the 'ol Willys out and crawled into the shooting range.At 40 yrds. the 99 made one ragged hole in the target,so I feel a lot better now about my 99.I just hate the nervousness of a used gun purchase.

What fixes are there for my handguarg? thanks.

chainsaw

What a day,I loaded up 20 rds of ammo for my 99,went off to the range.The snow was too deep to get in the access road so I had to shoot at the alternate spot.25 yrds across a narrow draw.I loaded the 99 up and chambered a rd.or so I thought.The cartridge wouldn't go in.See,I used to have an FR7 and ...

chainsaw

Thanks for all the replys guys,I loaded 20 rds with 44 gr. of BLc2,because I had some,and 165 gr sp.I will report my results in a couple days,it's awful snowy here right now.I do like 4064,that's what I use in 243,35 whelen,22-250.I'll try it too.
Thanks again.
Rich

chainsaw

Hey Joe,thanks for the reply and welcome.I plan on using this gun for mule deer and quite possibly elk.I have a bunch of 165 gr bullets,a little big for deer but good for elk.I have been reloading for several years and know my way around a press.I guess I was hoping someone had a good starting piont...

Gentlemen,I came across a Savage 99E in .308 win,at a gun show today.After a little thought,trying to talk myself out of it,I needed the money more than the gun,i bought it.I don't feel bad about it now,I have been looking for a .308 for a while.And I only gave $350. for it.I have never owned,or eve...
