It's sad to realize that nobody has craving for the finest repeating rifle ever made. I would take Savage 1899 with say F grade engraving plus spare .410 shotgun barrel.

Mine is a L.R. (Bob) Wallack, in anything 270 up ..... non wildcat. I've only been looking for a year or so, so the lust is still high. We are related. I never met him but I think it would be something special to hand down in the family.

I went to another thread to ask about the 99 Presentation which was apparently a product of the late sixties. Is this too late to be a "good 99"?

Wallack Springfield is indeed a .35 Whelen. I am away from home so cannot give details, but it is rather lightweight and has 19" barrel, no recoil pad. Heavy kicker, somewhat mitigated by good stock shape. Also very loud, every pine cone for an acre around comes down when you shoot it in the woods. On balance a serious hunting rifle.

The guys over on the Savage forum use s/n 1,000,000 as the cut off, pre-mil 99's are the equivalent of pre-64 Winchesters, sometime in the late 1950's, early 1960's I believe.
My problem lies in reconciling my gross habits with my net income.

I just sold an original 1895 Savage 303 with 1/2 octagon bbl, one of those first ones that were actually made by Marlin. Wonder how that one would qualify?
