What constitutes a saddle gun in Savage Arms talk? I have a 99-A 250-3000 built in 1972. The Savage Arms 1971 catalog that introduced the rifle said: "An historical new 99, a 99-A saddle gun, with a touch of history in features such as the straight western-style stock and schnabel fore-end".

Would any 99 with that description be considered a saddle gun?

In my humble thought process any rifle with a saddle ring would be a saddle gun.
