Just curious......I've recently picked up a pre-mil Savage 99F in .243 caliber. I therefore will be selling my post-mil 99F (also in .243). It is in 95% condition and a really nice rifle, particularly for a left-hander who prefers the shotgun style safety.

What has me a bit confused is that I have had two offers in the $600 range for it. This is a "post-mil" rifle!!! It's been quite a while since I sold any 99's (I keep buying, but the wife has sort of began making unhappy noises).

Is this price in line? I know the .243 caliber is desirable and 99 prices have been going up......but that's less than I paid for the pre-mil (also in 95%+ condition). Did I make a great buy on the older rifle......or need to jump on these offers.

I intended to post pictures and give those here the first shot at this rifle, but these offers seem too good to pass up.
