I finally was able to make out the LBC - I believe it to be 12N, which would make this gun 1962, I believe. Beautiful gun, shoots well, rotary mag.

The serial number points to it being mfr'd in 1962 as well, so you figured it out.

Welcome to the campfire! If this is your first Savage 99, you might want to stop now. They tend to breed...

Yeah, I may be infected. Had been shooting a Ruger Mk 77 .308 with a bull barrel, and love that gun as well, but there is something about the Savage 99 that is just intriguing My wife (a non-shooter) even commented on how "pretty" it was. Thanks for the welcome. Looks like a lot of good knowledge and sharing here.

Came across this thread while trying to find info about a Savage 99 ser # 2243xx in 303. Can anyone help with the date of birth?
The info I have found says 1918, another says 1920. One source says it should have a 22 or 24" barrel. This has a 26.

Dusty, it should date to 1920. Barrel length varies by model, so yours sounds like a model 99A if the forearm is attached with a screw, or a model 99B if it's attached with a latch (it would be a takedown). This serial number range is a bit disputed, some would call it a model 1899A rather than 99A or 99B. Physically they are the same, so really call it whatever you like. grin

You are right about the 7mm-08. It is a C with a Monte Carlo stock.

The 22-250, by definition, can't have been made earlier than it was made. So C358xxx isn't too early after all.

Holy crud... that's a sweetheart of a rifle. 6H is 1956.

Should add a funny story-

My wife cannot drive a stick shift. For a while she could not get through her head that you start in 1st, not 5th gear.

It would be funny I mean, if it weren't so hard on the clutch. Bless her heart, she's very smart, but there is a wire disconnected on the sequence of shifting a vehicle.

We all have our quirks. Me, I'm a lever action guy. laugh laugh
