[QUOTE="LoneTraveler, post: 1956557, member: 77249"] There was a takedown model of the Savage 99 made in some calibers. Could a takedown model be the rifle you have and The barrel is not properly installed, Or could it be the wrong barrel for that particular rifle action. Is there any matching or unmatched numbers on the barrel and action. The .38-55 is a rimmed case, The headspace should be off the rim. Or the rifle was shot with a plugged barrel of Snow or Water and shoved the locking section on the back of the bolt out of specs. I would take it to a experienced gunsmith who works on 99 Savage for a checkup. [/QUOTE]
