Still looking for a EG in 30-30 with a 24 inch barrel. Would appreciate at least 90% condition. Anyone with one to let go of?

Thanks much,
Steve

I had one but it was 22" I thought...

Yeah, I have a 303 and 30-30 and am almost sure the standard barrels were 22".

Mines 22", looks just like that GB rig, not D/T though .

Thanks guys for the info. I'll keep searching. Sometimes most of the fun in acquiring one is the search. It will turn up one day.

Thanks again,
Steve

The 250-300 and the 300 Savage were the only calibers available with the 24" barrel in the Savage 99EG (1935-1960) The 30-30 was only offered in EG with the 22" barrel, so your search will go on forever.

Never say never (or forever) and "Savage" in the same breath!

I figured he must know something I missed...

Here is mine.
Take down and a 26" barrel, in 30-30.
Factory refurbished about 1986. Possibly I should get it lettered?

Bubba drilled it for a scope before it came into my hands sadly. He also drilled the holes to be a bit off so I can't even use normal scope mounts.

Here it is, 4th from the top, showing barrel length relative to the other 99's.

Seems I am doing something wrong with the posting of these pics.

They definitely were made with 24" barrels!! here's mine for your viewing pleasure. This one isn't quite the "pristine condition" that SBrown wants

I had a .30-30 w/24" barrel, 93% w/matching #'s, 1947, no extra holes. A person made me an offer I couldn't refuse; now I'm sorry---(but was glad when it happened). I haven't seen another
99 that I wanted since 4 hours ago.

If memory serves me: I'm thinking I once saw an "RT" 30-30 with a 24" barrel. Maybe it was yours?

I'm getting old though and my brain doesn't work as good as it used to.

Just sayin

Jeff, when you're ready to sell, let me know.

Steve, I already put your name and phone number in the butt stock hole, in case I pass away dragging my deer out of the woods.

When I first saw your reply, I was reaching for my check book.
Hope you kill a big one with no troubles. Just remember me in the future.

Steve

1899guy, What is the spare barrel about on the bottom of the picture? Extra/different caliber?
