Re: Rotary Magazine Help...
You violated the #1 rule of rotary mag 99's!!! ;) If it works, do not disassemble for any reason.
It has to do with the spring pre-tensioning. I can't help you more than that. I am sure others here or on 24hourcampfire can help you more.
Re: Rotary Magazine Help...
It is just the spring tension on the rotary mag. It is a trial and error thing to get it tight enough to load the last round and not too tight that you can't get the last one in. Wind it up just another notch or two. If you need complete instructions on how to do the let me know and I can provide you with the detail.

You hit the nail on the head. When I removed the rotary magazine, the tension on the spring was relieved. I got the instructions on another site regarding how to reset the tension. An easy fix. Thanks a bunch ;)
Re: Rotary Magazine Help...
Can anyone direct me to a site or have an exploded view of what I need to look for when I take apart my 99. My rotary will not turn on it's own. I think it just has a load of old grease or oil gumming it up. But what should I look for?
Re: Rotary Magazine Help...
Bought a beaut-300 Savage last eve.
I need the disassembly, exploded views etc.
Thank you
