Had a gentleman/dealer from up in Minnesota email me via the Savage Shooters site today hoping to find an owner of a specific Savage 99 in .358 Win that was sold new in 1968. Seems he happened to get the paperwork from the original sale and some correspondence that would go with this specific rifle. Here's the email verbatim:

Hello,

I'm an FFL dealer in MN. I have purchase paperwork and correspondence for Savage 99 358 Win Ser. 918630 from 1968 purchaser. I know it's a long shot but wanted to post that it's available for free. I really don't want to register (I'm already on enough forums:)! But on the chance someone here has this nice rifle it might add a little history to it. This collection had some high grade firearms so this Savage is with a collector somewhere. Anyway, feel free to post and they may contact me at my email: mntrdgco at gmail dot com

Thanks.

I have a 9182xx that's a 99F in 358 in my data, but no 9186xx.

PS: I do have a 918567 in my data as well, a 99F in 358. Getting closer.
