Sounds like a 99H.
No cheek pads?
The sling was added.

Serial number puts it in 1929 probably. Agree with Rick that it's probably a 99H since it has no schnabel and a 20" barrel. Wouldn't have come from the factory with studs and a sling, but they've likely been on there for 80 years or so. Probably looks pretty similar to this? ![[Linked Image from dygtyjqp7pi0m.cloudfront.net]](https://dygtyjqp7pi0m.cloudfront.net/i/7832/9386470_1.jpg)

Thanks Calhoun for the you tube link! Very interesting and informative Savage lever overview! My only critique, the experience a bit fast. Conjuring a parallel to an old girlfriend of my mispent youth to lament... "What was thaaat!"  Best! John
