With inflation, $99.95 in 1963 is equivalent to almost $800 today. Is that inexpensive?
Savage 99EG's weren't exactly inexpensive when they were made.
Not at the time.. but they've been able to be had at bargain prices the last 20+ years (in 300 Savage at least).
Inexpensive things when new that last forever? Lee reloading equipment comes to mind.
