Brought a couple classics out for the holidays at my Mother in laws farm. Took out my 300 sav M99 to make some brass and my broth. inlaw brought his Rem Md 81 takedown 35 rem. What a sweet little gun that was. Soft shooting but pretty hard hitting. Easy to hit a big rock out on the lake with fast follow up shots. Think I needs me one of those now, maybe in 300 sav. though. Anybody know if they ever made a Model 99 in 35 rem?
Shot a classic yesterday

Polaris,
Not sure about the 35 Rem but Savage did offer the M99 in 358 Win.

Ha! When I saw the title of the thread I guessed it was a 99 in .300 Savage! Why ain't I in Vegas??

That is certainly high praise from a knowledgeable individual. I know that I regret letting my one and only Model 99 slip away.

Yes, they did chamber the 358Win and my brother Marc has one and he will not sell it to me, but I wouldn't sell it to him if I owned it. :mrgreen:
