Very neat Kieth!! May be literally a One-of-a-kind Savage!! And even more neat now that the Cody archivists are really handling the records effectively! Congratulations Kieth!!

Your pics are great and so is your find. Truly a miracle that in a 116 years some short barrel whiner (sbw) didn't cut the barrel down. sbw's long predated savage 99's. How about a pic of it over a nice fat 4x4 whitetail?..mb

I never gave that much thought, I guess back then, just as today, a hack saw was cheaper than a new rifle. Maybe it stayed in the family a long time and rode out it's time in a closet corner? We are all lucky Keith found this one.
