This gun is now sadly out of production but goes
back quite a long ways. Earlier Model 99's can become
quite valuable. This is chambered in .243 (6mm)
and is beautifully balanced, with superb woodwork
- aquired new from a raffle!.
Only equipped with a Tasco scope initially, that
was changed to a Leupold as grouping seemed poor.
This turned out not to be the problem and instead
it would seem that it does not like the 105 grain
heavy bullets that had been handloaded. It will
probably perform better with a more standard 85
grain bullet weight, as possibly its twist is a
major factor. |
