Section 6: Rifles Subject: Savage M99 Msg# 1166118

I might have to start looking for a Savage 99 at OGCA. I need one like another hole in my head, right? But they are handsome!
The only downside to an M6 in .22 Hornet is ammo availability. This may sound odd, but I might prefer one in .22 Magnum. |

For reference, the above message is a reply to a message where: Well, if I owned a Savage 99 I'd be a bit snobby about it as well. Maybe even more so today than 30 years ago because they are slighty less common and considerably more pricey today--and riflemen think very highly of them. I see them for sale occasionally and have noticed that they are usually in excellent used condition. Pride of ownership? Lack of use? I don't know, but I have always thought of them as very good looking firearms. Re: the M6. I have never heard of that company. Still, too good to die, right? I hadn't heard of the company either. They do offer the various combinations, including the .22 Hornet which I think makes good sense in a survival rifle. The concept and design is too good to die, and I'm surprised that one of the bigger makers hasn't put it into a catalog. Harvey |
