    Savage 99 question

    It will not have a lever boss code, the last year savage used them, was supposedly 1971 (Y), but I've never seen one past W (1969). The ops rifle is a 1972. The only models Savage made with a detachable magazine was the 99C and 99CD.

    Savage 99 question

    Redneck2, your 1917 would have been a model "1899 .250-3000". That was the first model that Savage offered the 250-3000 Savage in. In the early 1920s Savage change the model name from 1899 to 99. There were several 1899/99 model variations that were chambered in 250-3000. The earlier the...

    30-30 savage 99s

    You can find 30-30s. In 20, 22, 24, and 26 in barrels. Models with straight stocks and some with pistol grip stocks. All will be 1941 or earlier. If you don't want a long barrel, the 1899H and early 99F are straight stock 20" and I think probably show up for sale the most. The .303...

    Savage 99 - 308 Win or 300 Sav

    Which one should you choose Both will perform fine; if you expect to shoot a lot over 200 yards, then I'd go with the .308. If not, I personally would base the decision on the originality, condition and value of the rifles. If you need help determining what exactly you have, PM me. Based...

    Reloading 375 Winchester for the 99 Savage

    Just picked up a Savage 99-375 (375 Winchester). Does anyone have experience reloading the 375 Winchester in the Savage 99. I'm interested in which bullet (mfgr, type, grain) you chose and what powder you landed on.

    Safe to fire brass fire-formed in one 30-06 in another 30-06?

    I have 30-06 brass I fire-formed and loaded for my bolt action. My son-in-law also has a 30-06 bold action and these rounds will chamber in his rifle. I think it will be fine/safe to fire these in his rifle, but since I've not done this before, I thought I would run this by here just for a...

    Bulgarian Makarov pistol: new to me..

    I purchased 9x18 brass from Starline and reload. You can also trim and fire form 9x19 to use to reload 9x18. When I first picked up my first Mak, Starline did not have 9x18 Mak brass, so I purchased a few boxes of Fiocchi 9x18 Makarov ammo (has brass case) from LAX Ammo for about $16 a box to...

    P-83 Wanad

    I have the P-83, a Bulgarian PM and and East German PM. Of the three, the double-action is similar (I never use it at the range), but once cocked, I like the P-83 the best out of the three. My SA Range Officer .45 is my favorite and most accurate center fire pistol. But none beat my Smith &...

    P-83 Wanad

    The P-83 is a nice pistol for the money. Your post prompted me to go fire mine at the local indoor range this morning. Not bad for a $260 pistol. All shots at 15 yards. Top is 5 mags of 5 rounds each rapid fire. The bottom is 15 rounds slow fire. Both two hand, unsupported. Reloads with...

    How many times can you safely reload bottle-neck brass?

    I've just started reloading bottle-neck cartridges. I have reloaded quite a few straight-wall 45ACPs. How many times can you should one reload a bottle-neck case before recycling it? My assumption is that one should stop using it at some point, even if it does not show signs of stress or...
