A nice hunting pic from MnFn. We believe the rifle to be a 1928 99H in 303 restocked with prewar 99R wood. Makes a dandy hunting rifle, and love the brown color of the antlers.

You will probably have to talk to your cousin about that. I can’t give you all my R’s. I kinda like it. As you said, Savage should have made more like this, really a neat little rifle. Looks even better with a new Lyman peep on it!

Thanks Rory for posting it.
Glad you like the rifle.

I have a model DE in .308 I picked up from a pawn shop. It had been used so I decided to take it out this year. Fine shooting rifle. Was able to get one buck and one doe here in MS with it. I could not Figure out how to download a more clear picture onto the thread.

I have an unfired 99PE and she’s a show case queen. When I stumbled on this DE that had obvious use I couldn’t help myself. I’d like to find a DE unfired to put up with the PE but for now I will rock this one in the field.

My holy grail gun is a PE in 284. I think I could live with two rifles, a shotgun, and a couple handguns if one of the rifles was a PE in 284. Already have one in 308 but that's boring.

So my grandfather had a PE in .284 and he hunted with it. That’s all I remember him carrying. It was passed to my cousin and he sold it. That’s what got me looking for one. I had the opportunity to buy a .284 but couldn’t stomach the price. I was fortunate enough to come across a .308 unfired that was affordable. I will always have my eye out for a .284. Dreams are to have a PE in each of the three calibers. If I am to be that lucky.
had that happen with an antelope many years ago. too bad
