I used to be a real 99 loony, even owned an 1895 in .30-30, along with take-downs in .22 HP, .250-3000, .300 and .303. But eventually realized the only one I wanted to hunt with was the mid-1950s 99F in .358 Winchester I inherited from one of my hunting mentors, so sold the rest....
I still have my .358W. Haven’t hunted with it for years. That changes in spring bear.
