SAVAGE MODEL 99 300 SAVAGE LEVER ACTION

The Savage Model 99 is a legendary lever-action rifle celebrated for its innovative design and versatility. Introduced in 1899 and produced for nearly a century, it broke away from traditional lever-action norms by incorporating a hammerless action and a rotary magazine, enabling the safe use of pointed bullets for improved ballistics. This design made it a favorite among hunters for medium to large game.

The rifle typically features a solid steel receiver with a smooth lever throw, a walnut stock with fine checkering, and a blued finish for durability. Its rotary magazine includes a round counter on some models, and later versions were drilled and tapped for scope mounts, enhancing adaptability for modern optics. Known for its crisp trigger and reliable action, the Model 99 remains a classic choice for collectors and enthusiasts alike.
