Not bad, but as a lefty that safety will take some getting used to. I've had better luck with the tang-safety models though the rifles aren't as desirable and don't give you too many cartridge options.
I was tracking two post 1960 Savage 99's on Gun broker which sold IMO for ridiculous prices. One was a post 1960 99 Deluxe model in .308 sold for $953.00 and the other std model 99 with a tang safety with a cut stock sold in the mid $650 range. The price of being a lefty.
You can buy the old one's on the fire for far less $$$.
