Thank you for all thoughts and opinions.
I'm not a collector, just love Savage 99's. I picked up this Savage as a hunting gun for my grandson. I just want it fixed.
Not being an expert, I could be wrong on my asumption that it is a headspace issue.
I have no knowledge of the term "bolt bite" as mentioned by CTW, 1899SAV, and Lightfoot, but if it is something "easily fixed for a shootable gun" I would like to understand what it is, and how to identify it.
Please tell me what bolt bite is.
Thank you. ACK375IMP
