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?

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
