I don't think the 99R is off on price, it's priced as a hunter. By today's standards, the EG with a pad isn't priced too high probably.
But if you don't want them, you shouldn't get them. Can't own them all, if they don't grab you then save your money for something that will. I'd have probably grabbed the R for future trade fodder myself, but skipped on the others.

If they had some more condition, I would have bought one. Already own 3 rifles with 30 cal ballistics, a WIN 94 30-30, Swedish Mauser 6.5 x 55 and an SKS 7.62 x 39.
If he was willing to move on price would've considered also. Got shooters, would be nice to have a "looker". Now you're thinkin'. Buy pretty ones.

Tried that with women. Required lots of fancy substances, constant buffing and rubbing, tinkering with their innards.... Jeez.... But they sure turned heads...

Send one of them off to JES to re-bore to .358 WCF Wouldn't work. Need 99's that are serial numbered at 900,000 or higher to handle the 243/308/358 length cartridges in the magazine. These were all pre-900,000.
