Anyone know what quantities/calibers were made the most/least in the 900,000 range? I always seem to find the 308,243, I know the 358 is hard to find, 300?

300's are common.
250's and 243's are the hard ones to find.

John,
Those levers can be replaced. Too bad about it though.

Im thinking that if the lever was blued than the rest of the gun was, looked very nice tho! if it was a 358 it would have found a new Home! John

The .308, 243s are the most common in the 99F (1954 era rifles) the 250-3000, 284 and the .358s are available but at a much stiffer price these days. To my notion these are the best quality of Savage rifles ever built providing you can get on with, under lever safety, brass rotor, walnut, hand checkering, rust blued guns...nice is the word.

Its in 300, I debated on getting it because of the caliber but it was too reasonable to be picky.
