I'm picking up a .243 Savage 99 tomorrow and I'll be getting a couple of boxes of ammo to play with and test. What I'm wondering is;
1. anything special to know about the '99. It is a late 60's vintage DL with monte carlo stock and the rotary magazine.
2. What weight bullet and what brand is your favorite factory load. Deer opens the 24th here in NY, so not a lot of time for cooking up a reload.
3. As far as that goes, I will be loading for coyotes and deer after this season is over so I am also interested in other favorite loads.
As for me, I'm a retired curmudgeon, sitting on the banks of the St. Lawrence River watching the ships go by when I'm not tinkering or off shooting some of my favorite firearms.
TIA,
Boox
