anyone who says they are dead is living a dream.
while not exactly prospering, they are in my mind the pentultimate deer cartridge, not so fast as to blood shot the meat, fast and accurate enough to kill to 300 yards.
I just bought 500 nickel cases for my supply.
The Savage Co. built something like 750,000 model 99's and remington, winchester and others all chambered rifled for it. I have two model 81 takedown autoloaders and a model 70 winchester pre 64 as well as a locker full of model 99's. If you have to pay 40 dollars a box for ammo you need to overthrow your state government. seriously, I just was shopping on friday and there were three brands and maybe 7 choices of loads for 300 Savages in the local Gander. Federal had some 165 trophy bonded loads that were exceptional a few years ago, (last time i bought them). If you think the cartridge is dead and want out, I will help you get out of the rifle.
