I have a Savage 99 in 250 Savage.The serial # is 6542xx. I was wondering what year it was made; the best answer I have found so far is,"after 1950."
I also have 2 questions about the barrel. Did Savage ever stamp them 250 Savage, or were they always stamped 250-3000? And, what is the rate of twist of my barrel?
Lastly do some of the more recently manufactured rifles like the Savage 110 or Ruger M77 Internetional have a different rate of twist geared more toward modern bullet designs than my Mod. 99?
Thanks for any help.
