I know it's probably bad juju but I've always thought of getting one and having an awesome tube screwed on one to copy the factory barrel. I like the 99 a bunch but get exactly what you're saying about not being able to shoot the heavier stuff.

MD, why did the twist rates vary so much on them? I'm assuming machines wore out but I don't really know.
