[QUOTE="Litehiker, post: 1114104, member: 54178"] SAVAGE 99 RE-BUILD: I'm re-barreling my .308 Savage 99 C with an octagonal barrel like the Green Mountain octagonal I already have on my Ruger 96/22 WRM. The Savage gets an octagonal straight taper Bartlein with 5R rifling, hand lapped, hopefully. Getting the barrel threads timed so the top flat is exactly on top and everything is perfectly headspaced will take some good gunsmithing. Then I'm sending both off to Wenig for nearly matching brown laminated stocks, classic cheekpiece and "slightly Schnabeled" fore ends. Big brother Little brother lever guns, so to speak. [/QUOTE]
