My most accurate 99 is my 99F in 250-3,000. It won't shoot 100 grain bullets worth beans, but it shoots 87 grainers and the Sierra 90 grain HPBT very well. I have been loading Leverolution powder with the 90 grain Sierras and getting 3,000 fps with no pressure problems. I might even take it to the Catskills this November.

All four of my 99s have the old style trigger, which can be improved by some light gunsmithing. That is explained in a book by Roy Dunlap.
