Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Savage Collectors Transition 1899

One of my favorites. It is a tad heavy for sure. My transition period with the 26 inch barrel. 2436xx is the serial number range. Lightfoot mount, vintage Lyman 3x scope. I have no clue as to the value but I know I don't have much in it. Once I recover from this task I may add a couple more photos. I struggle mightily with posting photos. Maybe after church I will give it another run.

Look forward to seeing more photos nd hearing how it shoots.

Some more photos. The last one shows where I rebuilt the butt stock from a serious gouge. I think it turned out pretty well and it saved a lot on the purchase price because of the significant flaw. How does it shoot? Superbly and with Varget powder I have hit 2800 feet per second with room to spare. Wasn't even trying to get there.
5 notches in the stock so it accounted for something or other for the freezer.

Very nice!
