savage 99r. 1936 pre war 303 savage
Description: What is offered here is a very sophisticated Savage indeed. This 1936 model is the earlier variant of the 99r which had a slimmer forearm and a more intricate checkering pattern. The butt stock has a nice 'ribbon' effect which I have tried to show in the photos. The forearm and butt stock are tight to the metal and have very few dents and dings considering the age of this piece. I have shown in one of the photos what I believe to be the worst of the 'dings'. To my eye they look worst in the photo than in person. There is still case harding evident on the lever and the bluing, except for the sharp edges, is pretty much intact and original on both the barrel and receiver. The rifling is strong with no major pitting or corrosion. The 303 Savage is basically the step brother of the 30 30 Winchester. Both modern and vintige ammo is available at any where from $40.00 a box up to several hundred. The '303' was known as a good brush caliber as you could get a 190 gr. factory loading. If your a hand loader you would be better off working up some 165 gr. loads using spire points, speed kills. Also this is the later bore which is .308 not .311 which was the original bore diameter. The optics are a vintage Lyman All American 2.5 fixed power posted crosshair. The scope is in nice shape with clear and sharp viewing. The price does not include shipping which I would estimate at $50.00 plus for most of the continental US. I do not hold an FFL so if your FFL will not accept delivery from private (drivers license only) there will be an additional charge. There are no returns so feel free to ask questions all you want. Rifle is to be purchased as is with no waranty offer or implied. Payment is to be in the form of M.O. order or certified check. Personal checks accepted but will take longer to ship. A very nice and rare piece.
