Hey I'm new to this and trying to figure it out. I'm looking for a Savage model 99C 7mm-08. My grandpa had given me one which was later stolen and I believe it went to a pawn shop. i would like to try to own another one. Please help and let me know if you got one for sale. Thanks!

Last one I sold went for $2200'ish. Rebore a 243 if you want a shooter.

Cheaper to rebore or rebarrel a 243 if a guy just wanted one for hunting.

PM'd you back. I'm mainly just wanting what my Grandpa had given me. Model 99C lever action. Loved that gun.

Yep.. last few I've seen went for insane amounts, whereas a guy could rebore a 99C in 243 to 7mm08 for $1000 or less.

$500-$600 for a nice 243:

$425 for rebore/rechamber:

Original 99C in 7mm08 probably run you double that or more.

Dan Peterson will do the rebore for less than that and he's good. Long wait sometimes but he does good work. Delta charges top dollar and so does Redmans who are also located out here on the left coast. (Well, Redmans are east of the Cascades.) I'd contact Dan and see what kind of numbers he offers.
