Savage Model 99 Rifle

Have always wanted one and just picked this up from a neighbor who is a Vietnam Veteran and a retired LEO. They were designed in 1899 and its five round rotary magazine was a pretty revolutionary idea for a firearm designed at the close of the 19th Century. Savage originally tried to sell it to the military but that didn't fly so they sold them on the civilian market instead. They were produced in 16 different calibers to include .410 shotgun and they were last manufactured in 1998. Mine is a .308.

Anybody else like them or have one?
