    Savage 99

    99's are the ultimate in lever rifles.

    I had a chance to buy one in 308 the last year they were made... I wanted something bigger and picked up a 30-06 bolt. Happy with the 30-06 but wish i had bought the savage 99.

    I read something a while back about this, in order to even make a small profit
    they would have to retail the rifle at $1200 .

    1951 .300 savage, rotary magazine.

    My grandfather's rifle and still a shooter. My all time favourite.

    That doesn't seem bad considering a new M94 or M92 is over $1000.

    I just wish Savage would put out more iron-sighted bolt rifles, like their Scout rifle. I'm sure they'd sell Axis carbines in .308, .223, and 7.62x39 with iron sights. They could probably make them for about the same price as the Axis, maybe $50 difference, and while it wouldn't be a lever gun, certainly not as nice as a 99, it would fill a niche in the market that's empty right now, except for single-shots. You just can't buy affordable iron-sighted rifles anymore.

    Iwould pay twelve hundred for a new 99, the problem is savage won't bother
    for small profits.
