I guess I wouldn't say that one is more or less valuable than the other, as they are pretty much the same rifle. The 1899 Deluxe Takedown was only offered in the .250-3000 caliber, and when they advanced to the Model 'G', it was offered in all the other calibers available for the Model 99 at that time. The earlier 1899 Deluxes with the cross-checked trigger and perch-belly stocks do bring more. And if you really are worried that you spent too much, I would gladly take it off your hands.
