At long last my Savage 99 has taken another deer. The gun was my grandfather's, then my dad's until he died in 1988 when I was 14. My dad shot a 6-pointer that year, but died before the butcher was done with the processing. I hunted a little with it when I was young, but felt I needed to hunt with a scope and sling. Reluctant to drill it, I bought a used, scoped Remington 721 with which I hunted for 25 years. I'm very grateful to those on this site who showed me how I could modify the 99 without marring it permanently! The gun is a 99T with a Lightfoot mount, Leupold VX1 2-7x33 and Bayou Gun Sling. The deer is 7-points (5x2) and was taken in Fox Township of Sullivan County, PA. Hopefully the image link works...
