Most of mine wear modern Weaver 2 piece bases. I'd have to say the one piece Leupold base is higher quality though since a few guys on the campfire have had new Weavers that weren't to spec and couldn't get the scope adjusted enough.
I also have a number of 99's with vintage Redfield or other 1 piece bases, and they are perfectly fine. Make sure you get one that fits the standard d&t for Savage 99's, there are a couple versions with special spacing that came out before Savage offered a lot of factory d&t 99's.
Leupold VX-I's for the most part for scope, lately I've been doing the 2-7x33's.
