I like the pre-60s best (actually pre-war), but there are a few post-60s on my list; one less now. 99C 22-250. Will take more pics when it gets here.

Nice figure in that stock
Good one to find if you like the C models.
Well, I guess if you gotta have a post-mil that would be the one to have. Nice score!

I hear ya; if it wasn't a 22-250 it wouldn't be headed my way.
That's a purdy C alright!

I hope it shoots well. I've had 3 or 4 of the .22-250s and they shot OK but never had a tack driver. Ended up with a Savage 12BV with the 26" bull barrel and it is 1 hole gun.
The NIB 22-250 I had also had some nice figure to the stock. Wonder if they spruced a few up on purpose?

Nice gun!
A lot of the 99C's had very nice figure in the wood, starting back in the late 1960's.
I think a lot of the post 60 rifles had some pretty nice wood on them. My 68 DL had some nice figure in it.
Good looking rifle
Nice Keith!

Have you gone to bed yet. Check your messages. Don't want you jumping in the back seat with a Baltimo Ho.
Yeah, Keith is pretty nice!
Go to work, Gary!
I missed one like that with the box at the Novi Antique arms show by 2 mins for 800.00 was hoping the guy holding it was going to set it down , But NO he had it in a death grip!
that one is on my bucket list. maybe not a C but the 22-250.
i got a C 243 from Roy that has wood like that. its a keeper.
This was my 22-250. Regret selling that one actually, but at the time I didn't have much interest in any postmil that wasn't a 284.

Picked up a late 80's 99C this spring with a nice figure in the stock. I've changed my opinion obviously. grin

Recently acquired a Model 12FV from bil's estate. Nice setup. Haven't fired it. Yet...
Picked it up from my FFL today. A couple pics from home of the furniture and case-color. Really happy.

That looks to be the nicest one I've ever seen without holding it.

Hope it shoots well for you! My bolt gun really likes Varget as a powder.
Bue-T-full !

Saaaawweeeeet!!
