Got this savage 99 in 300 savage, and it has a .410 barrel with it. Apparently you just screw the 300 barrel off and screw the 410 barrel on? I'ts got beautiful furniture, maybe 98% condition. Looks to never have been fired. serial 237xxx. Jewelled bolt, case colored lever, barrel length 23" from muzzle to receiver.

Anybody know where I can get info on it, date of mfg, is it a special run? approx value, that sort of thing. My other forums suggested ya'll as the guys who knew everything. The story on it is that this guy is cleaning out his father in laws old gunshop, and apparently some judge in dallas ordered it many years ago, but never picked it up, so it sat in the gunshop for years and years waiting on him. I suppose it could have even been some sort of special order gun. [Linked Image]

I was looking for a shooter, and this was just advertised as a "savage 99 for sale"
