Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Deer Hunting A Savage 99 Thread

I haven’t said too much because I only loaded, shot, & hunted one 99 very much.

I had a 358 Win and loaded 185 Rem, and 200 HSP. I loaded to normal 358 velocities which were not mild and WAY more than MID level
loads. I had good accuracy or I would have moved it pretty quick. Also I had no problems with case stretching which has been criticized in the 358
for having a minimal or insufficient shoulder and NOT just in a 99.

So from a sample of 1, I did not experience the reported FLEX in the action. Based on my experience with 1, I’d gladly give another one a go,
in 300 S or 308 Win.
