I just picked up a Savage model 99 in 300 Savage. The serial number indicates that it was manufactured in 1949. This particular rifle is equipped with the round counter on the side but has a steel magazine spool. I have 3 other 99's but all have brass spools. Anyone know why this one might be steel?
