Found A Fun And Relatively Rare Savage In 30-30 Win.

Looks to be a model EG but it would have to be made in 1940. Prior to 1940 the EG's weren't checkered and in 1941 they dropped the 30-30 option so it's either a 1940 or it's been messed with.

My guess would be it's been messed with as I've never seen a Savage 99 with a trapdoor buttplate on it before.

Did you take the buttplate off to see if it had matching numbers to the gun?

No, I didnt look under the butt plate yet. I am away at work now. I will be checking it out when I get off work.
It wouldnt suprise me if this rifle was pieced together over the years. It sure looks nice though! And shoots very well!
I have lots of fun shooting in its future! Lots of cast bullet shooting as well!

On post Number 19 (MADDOG) he seems to know the fellow who builds this mount. Maybe try Sending him a PM.

I managed to get mine from a Savage dealer from southern Alberta. I simply was in the right place at the right time, "twice" in one day!!! LOL!
