Haven't even had time to see how that gun or the 99A in 250 shoots yet. Actually I still haven't even scoped them yet. Work is really busy this year. 24 hour sarcastic S.O.B.

Of course, a schnaubel forearm makes for good kindling! One reason I've become partial to 99's for hunting is the sheer handiness/light weight of the one's that I own. Not an R in the lot. (Doesn't mean I would pass one by though.) If I were going to start carrying a heavy rifle again I would go back to the pre-64 M70 '06 or one of my Springfields.
