This thread dose my heart good . It is good to know there is still respect for the 99. sure there are many bigger , more expensive rifles that some think might be better or more attractive . I found my liken for the 99 at the age of 14 years old. it was in the hands of my uncle, it was a 99F in 308win made in 1957. I bugged him until I got him to sell it to me. that was in 1976. I have been searching and bringing 99s home ever since, I guess the thrill of the chase is part of it but mostly for me its the beauty and history in the 99 thats most appealing for me . If only them ole 99s could talk just imagine the stories they could tell !
