Never seen one, so for those of you who are lucky enough to find and buy one, can you post some pictures?

I dont have one so I will post some of my 99s to compensate for my failure.

Post war 250R



Salesman Sample 300 with Lyman scope



284 DL



1899H in 22HP and 250 Barrel Band

And a bunch of other cats and dogs...

That pigs nose is soooo long it looks like an Aardvark. I've got a solid frame I'll trade for that old car. It's not a solid frame Savage though, just an old solid steel bed frame. I've never seen a solid frame HP either. I'd like to get an 1899 A, B, and C with pretty good condition, then start on the shorter ones. I would like a BB in 250. Saw one a couple months ago, but it went for way crazy money. You have a pretty good selection of R's there. My 250 R was my first 99, so I have a soft spot for them. Took a nice 220 pound pig with it. Your pig looks bigger than mine, That's a nice one, Joe.

If you have a solid frame 22HP, can we see some decent pics of it?

Why????

You are not the first person to describe that hog in such a way. I killed quite a few hogs, but this boar was by far the biggest one. I have no idea how much his live weight was, but he was big.

Actually, my second biggest hog was killed with a 99R in 300. My friend was right next to me using my 700 carbine in 30-06. We did a quiet countdown and BOOM. Two piggies down.

I've seen a couple of 99E's in 22HP sell over the years, saw a 99EG in 22HP change hands (but not to me ).

I don't think you're likely to find a 99E in 22HP in better condition than the one in the middle of this rack.

My "E" in 22 hp

Here is my 1913 22HP that is now a solid frame wearing T wood.

Tom that looks really nice mate

There are some really nice rifles on here. I am assuming the T is the rarest to find in a 22HP.

I almost had a chance at an EG in 22HP once. Guy bought a whole collection of multiple 99s. The first one that he sold out of the lot was that gun. If I remember correctly, he sold it for $3200. And he sold it like an hour after he came home. He called one of his regular customers and like that, it was history. I never laid eyes on it. I ended getting a 99G in 30-30 and pre war R in 300 out of that collection. He did have a barrel band in 300 but it was way too beat up for the price.

The top rifle is a 99EG in 22 H-P.

99E with Stith setup. So far it keyholes everything I've shot in it. June looks slow enough so far for me to maybe get some shooting in. I want to file the tips off some Norma 70grain full metal jacket ammo and see if that works. The bore on the rifle looks good.

Be careful filing the tips off of FMJ bullets- there's a risk of the lead core squirting through leaving the jacket in the bore. It happened to me once with some Spanish FMJ 7x57 ammo. Luckily it happened on the last shot and I discovered it when cleaning the gun afterward.

I'll check the bore after every shot. Thanks, David
