That's a rangefinder reticle. I believe the horizontal wires are 3 mils apart. BillKilgore we refer to a tang safety as being on the upper tang behind the cocking indicator and the safety as on your rifle as being a lever safety. There was an aftermarket tang safety available for lever safety rifles. The factory didn't offer lever safeties until 1960 at serial #1,000,000. We refer to these rifles as post mil (million). You are really lucky to have a family heirloom 99. Keep it and pass it down to younger family members. David

"It has a brass rotary magazine, but I do not see a counter. "
Counter is the hole in the left side of the receiver. Cartridge number is marked on the side of the rotor and can be seen through the hole.
