New guy help 99 date?

[99th Savage]

Very, very nice rifle! Gurn, that was a wonderful gift! Recently, satisfying a longtime desire to own a Savage 99- mine turned out to be a 1949 vintage, but like Big Al1 said, "99's are timeless". That little hole with the brass number in it was what first caught my attention. And that's just one of it's several innovations... Now, after a time owning my Model 99, the whole thing charms me! It's just classic! I love the way it handles and shoots. And the rather interesting facts surrounding the 300 Savage cartridge, how it came about to be the smaller cousin of a 30-06 round, and essentially the inspiration for the .308. It's all so sweet, I gotta get a picture up too....
