Gun show in Anchorage sorry no pictures, 99 250 Savage, not factory drilled and tapped, 1 million plus ser #, lever safety, EG style forend with a high comb buttstock? Metal was proud at the tang. Restock or?

Also Savage 99 22 Hi Power with an Ivory butplate probably from way North fit was perfect about 1/4 inch thick. If I see them at future gun shows I will get pictures.

How $?
If they were good deals they’re already gone and won’t be at the next show
Proud metal at the tang, probably sanded and refinished

The 250 sounds like a 99A Version 2 if it has a schnabel forearm, but it wouldn't have a monte carlo stock - so yeah, probably replaced.

Oh.. missed that it was not factory d&t.

Yeah. Something there doesn't match up.

It has a whiteline pad and a copper front sight but it is a 1923 era Savage 99 G takedown in 300 Savage from the local LGS. We don't get as many opportunities as you folks down where they have more safequeens. 7 bills. Not a super deal but not too bad either. It has a marbles receiver sight.

That’s a nice hunting rifle. It’s an early 300. Looks like a take down model. Rear factory sight was probably drifted out to mount a scope. Tang sight more than likely added later as a replacement.
