Thanks for the info BHJ! I've researched them a bit and there really aren't any negative comment on them, albeit, there aren't that many reviews out there. I'm setting up the 99 for both deer and hogs, but of course only the hogs will be hunted at night. It just seems sensible to have the illuminated reticle, all other things equal. Amazon, of all places, has had about the best price I've seen lately.

I have a Bushnell Elite 3200 on a '42 Swiss K31. I've been impressed with the Bushnell but I don't think the Elite is available with an illuminated reticle. I have been looking at another scope, a Weaver 1.5-4.5x24 Classic Extreme 30mm tube. It has an illuminated dot in the center of the cross-hairs. I have a Weaver V-3 1-4x24 on an FAL and really like it. In fact, that's what I used to kill two hogs last year. I'm thinking this more compact scope might be more at home on the Savage 99. Decisions, decisions.
