I've got a Lyman tang site that I took off of my 99 in 300 Savage, something to do with age tired eyes I believe. Anyway I would like to know what I really have. All I can figure out is that it is a "long tang" model. It is adjustable for both wind and elevation. There is a locking lever on its L side to lock it in either the up or down position. Hope that is enough info. An idea of value would also be appreciated. Thank you

Very nice display! Best as I can tell I only have 1 of them.
Mine appears most like #'s 6,7,8 on the top row, counting L to R. It has a fold down "aperture reducer". Don't know what else to call it.
Camera is on the disabled list! Am saving $$$ for a digital SLR. Time to upgrade for the wife(photographer)in this family.
Thank you

I would suppose $150 if you got the screws. Maybe more.

$150 would be a great deal.

Here's a close-up of the 29 1/2 on my 99F Lightweight Takedown, from a recent posting I made here.

This might help confirm what you have:
