For that price I think the 99R is your best bet. Probably the best shooter as well.

Does it have to a 99?
There are a few bolt guns out there as well.

Second that. My 250 R was my first 99, love it, Joe.
I'm not greedy, I just want one of each.

Ok, the R it is then. Highly recommend them with a Leupold Westerner 8x with Target Dot. ![[Linked Image]](http://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e242/sierpienja/IMG_1330_zpswenshxvn.jpg)

Pre-war 99R's in 250 are sexy. ![[Linked Image]](http://i714.photobucket.com/albums/ww146/RodPhillips/Pre-war%20250%20R/IMG_3110_zps8cf8376c.jpg)

I prefer the pre war II R as it is lighter and more appealing. Might cause you to miss seeing a deer from a tree stand as the pre war's are hard to take your eyes off. You might find a shooter grade pre war R in your price range if your are patient. GW

Pre-war 99R's in 250 are sexy. I'll send YOU a PM Message, as I know where there's one with a peep sight on it -- not sure if it is D&Td but you could call to check. It looks like the one in the pix above, but some doofus added "white line spacers" at the grip and butt, but I've taken a close look and I believe that they can be removed and the grip cap and butt plate will line up OK. If you don't jump on it, then we can post the link here for all. Old No7

SH,
Thanks. Though for the OP, he isn't getting your R for $750 clams. Lol.
That is a really super clean rifle. I have one as well but it does not have the condition of yours and mine is 2 point. Also, the gun is all correct but someone added a light coat of Tru Oil on it.

Steelhead, I would be interested in it if pacecar doesn't take. Thanks. I never said anything about selling, just that I think Pre-war R's are sexy. That said, everything I have, except my integrity, is for sale. Unfortunately $700 will not buy the rifle pictured.

That's a really, really nice early 99R - and in 250. You done good with that one. Only one I've managed to snag in 250 is gray and d&t.

Thanks guys. I ended up spending the .250 money on a Steyr Professional 7x64 so will have to wait a little while for the 99.
Steelie that is a great looking R. Might have to bite the bullet and spend some more for one like that
