I don't mean to imply that any of these 99s are bad rifles but the ones I am referring to are, so to speak, the ugly ducklings of the hatch. I may not like the 99 in .300 and would walk on to something more tantalizing, but I certainly wouldn't tell a guy (of modest means) that it wasn't a capable hunting weapon. Especially if it was priced right. And any new guy knowing that the 99E is not the type of rifle that Savage aficionados would be beating a path to get to just might empower him to talk a deal. This is just an example.
