When I was a teenager I started looking for a shotgun and studied all the gun catalogs I could find or send off for. I would not hunt with a rifle for a number of years, yet as soon as I saw the Savage 99A in their catalog I was smitten and wanted to own one. Since I got mine I have found the 250 Savage to be an accurate, easy-to-shoot, and effective cartridge. I guess it's no elephant gun, but it works very well for most of our game and it's a cool chambering for the Model 99 (which is in turn a real cool rifle). Yes, I really like this rifle and cartridge!
