I've almost quit deer hunting entirely (the dogs don't like it when they have to stay home), but taking out one of those 99s for deer is still on my "to-do" list.

The early 99s were great guns. Classics for sure. I always wanted one in 300 Savage but never got around to it. Is your other 99 a 300 Savage?
