From 1921 through 1934 there were around 110,000 1899/99's made. I have a few over 500 rifles in my data, Within that 500 I have the following: 22HP = 14 ea (6 are in Australia or Canada) 250 = 8 ea 30-30 = 9 ea 303 = 6 ea 300 = 5 ea. I only have one in the last 3 years of data. Not uncommon for the barrel to be a take down. Sampling is a little squid from specifically hunting data on E's in past years..
