[QUOTE="3chester, post: 2880796, member: 99983"] Those Savage boys,up in Utica, NY, made over 1,000,000 Model 99's, from the 1920's to 1980's. One of the most common cartridges 99's were chambered for was 300 Savage. So a 1920's era 300 Savage, energy wise, almost a ballistic twin to the 6.5 Creedmoor, as both will shoot a 150 grain bullet at 2,800fps. They made quite a few those 99's with steel butt plates. Double Tin Filson or a wool Mackinaw hunting jacket, could be counted on to soak up any recoil in the Whitetail woods, back then. [/QUOTE]
