That’s where I remember it from too. Never seemed to take of. Think the .40 S&W helped filled the niche a bit..?

Took my Sav 99 358 win to the range today for a sight check before a hunt in 2 weeks time.
Managed to ring the 6" gong 2 out of 2 shoots at 200 mtr with a 1-4x0 scope so stopped shooting while I was ahead.
Any deer out to 300 mtr will be in trouble.
Did a couple of 100mtr groups first but was gust as heck so nothing to boast about.
Bipod, sling and rear bag.

An Aperture sight is essential for me , my eyes have degraded over time and the Aperture sight has allowed me to keep using “ open sights “ .
The accuracy that you can achieve over the standard “ Buckhorn “ rear sight is a noticeable and for me a happy side effect .
I’ve had the Williams sight for about 10 years now and after the initial sighting in , it hasnt been touched and it has never moved or altered even though it has bounced on he Dash of the ute for many thousands of Kilometres.

Here's my old girl its a 243Attachment 98655
Very nice. Have picked up a couple of 4 shot finnwolf mags over the years, one day I will find a rifle to fit them lol.
I'll sell you another mag and throw in the rifle, make an offer I can't refuse.
Those blankets better be infected with small pox or your selling him short.
saw a salesman at a shooting store in Fielding probably 20 years ago talking to a dude who brought one of those in to see what its worth and maybe sell it.
I was catching a glimpse here and there and it was super tidy. One of those rifles bought by a cashed up farmer and just never used.
The dud got the full sell down speil. Not a bolt action, no half cock, has to be loaded all the time so no-one wants them as they aren't as safe etc. etc.
Cant remember the dollars offered or even if I heard it at all, as I suspect if it was really low I would've probably jumped in and given him 50 more than the shop.
Doubt he was going to give him much. Mind you to a degree he was right. A lot do think that way
I took one appart, that was quick, putting it back together was another story but I got there eventually :-)
