I have 3 99's, a 250, a 300 & a 303. The 300 & the 303 are take downs & the 250 is a non takedown but dad got it at a fire sale back in the early 70's with the stock burned off it. All 3 shoot great. Here are a couple pics of my boys shooting them. The one that is scoped is the 250, scope is a Lyman All American 4 power. The other is the 303 with a Marble Tangsight on it. The pic of the 250 was taken 2 years ago, Jonathon was 11. The 303 pic with Jason was about 2 months ago, he's 10.

I'm more of a Winchester 88 guy, But I do appreciate a good 99 once in a while.
I own the entire line of Winchester 88's and 100's(including carbines) except for a .358. When I've got that, I guess I'll start buying 99's.

| Seeking knowledge...
Seems this forum has some Savage experts. I am helping my mother-in-law clean-up her late husband's gun collection, and hope you can educate me. One piece is a Savage 99M in .308 Winchester, 22 inch barrel. Engraved receiver--elk and cougar Manufactured before 1980 in Westfield. How do I find out more about the gun, value for insurance, etc? Thanks for any help!

Sounds like a 99PE. The M is for monte carlo stock. Manufacture between 1965 - 1970

| Newby Question
I'm trying to find out more about a rifle in our family. It is a Savage .250-3000 with a serial number of 178159. It is in a presentation case with a separate .410 shotgun barrel, the .250 rifle barrel, the rifle stock and the shotgun stock with recoil pad. Is there a ballpark value to this or is it worth keeping? It also has the grip checkering on the butt stock grip and the foregrip. It has a Williams micro peepsight. Very curious about this rifle after seeing some of these posts. Thank you

1916 date of manufacture. The case and barrel were not available until 1921, so it would have been bought after. Does the case have any savage markings on it? I have never heard of one with both butt stocks that was from savage. Would be interesting to see a picture of it.

hi guys, I'm new to the site and new to the .303 Savage model 99. I just got the gun off my dad and would like to get some info on take down and cleaning. From what I read this is a great gun and ammo is hard to come by. I've also been looking for the owners manual but can't find a copy anywhere can anyone help?

If you take the buttplate off it and then with a long slotted screwdriver take the stock bolt out you can take the buttstock off it. Once you do that you can get at about 95% of the internals if you just wanna clean it.
Doubt you'll find an owners manual for it, if it's in 303 Savage it's pretty old and I believe all they came with was a factory tag on them.
