Skidrow & fellas,
I was contemplating looking for a Savage 99 and have been reading your forum for a while but no where did I come upon an understanding of why this particular "Savage" was so universally disliked. Now I know and if I decide to add one to my hunting rifles, I will certainly avoid the anniversary model even though they appear to be in better condition than the originals that I have seen, which around here all look like rusted old junk and are all banged up from too much abuse by the previous owner(s). Thanks for the education.
