Savage 1899 250-3000

[fps plus]

I was lucky enough to come across a Savage 1899 250-3000. It’s a take down made in 1915. It’s all original , not drilled and tapped , and the stock is not cracked . Went to the range today with son and 7 year old grandson ,showed them the take down . Grandson figures that’s cool . Shot it with a peep sight and it’s darn accurate . The savage 99 with its rotary magazine and takedown is cool. When the 250 -3000 was released it really must have seemed like a laser beam . This little gun is definitely going to be out in the field this season . Anyone looking for a low recoil cartridge the 250 -3000 is a dandy.
