I will soon have in hand an older 99 (early brass rotary mag) and a 116 ss without accutrigger for $630 total. Both are scoped, but cheaply. Mostly, its the 99 that will need a new 4x Weaver to pass muster.
I will hunt elk in AZ with both, but the 99 is primarily my nostalgia gun (copy of my dad's own savage)
My question is, anyone have a fave factory ammo choice for target and/or for hunting with either of these?
Anyone care to share hand load recipes for the 99 in .300 Savage?
I realize I'll have to tweak any recommendations to my specific rifles, but just looking for any known good performers.
