Happy New Year!
Last year I sold three 99s at a local gun show and picked up three EGs - a checkered .250-3000 with a 22" barrel, a checkered Spiegel, and the .303 with a 22" barrel that we have been discussing re: whether the checkering is optional factory or not.
I shot a decent 8 pointer with a modified EG in .300 in November.
Still would like to find a late pre-war checkered F.
