Very cool. Any idea what it is?

The rifle is a Savage 99. Not sure on the caliber and scope. @sirhrmechanic could probably tell us what grain bullet from the photo.

A friend of mine hunts with a British .303 that has a scope that extends all the way to the end of the barrel almost. It looks like its brass or something. Pretty damn awesome.

Wm. Malcolm #3 target scope and mount, as shown on this Winchester 1895

Did it give a location? That guy looks just like a contractor that was at my house.

No, but his hat is from a business in NC, but probably bought on vacation.

The Model 99 was the best rifle Savage ever made.

Looking at the pic on my phone. What's up with the back leg? It looks really weird

 

[Tucker301]

I thought the same, but the dude is pretty old.

Possibly a 300 Savage, my grandfather had one. Always hoped he would give it to me but my cousin got it instead. It was in mint condition.

Could also be a 22HP. My Brother inherited one from my Grandpa, been wanting to take it deer hunting for a long time.

Probably a 300 but could just as easily be a 250.

I’ve got one in a .243 featherweight I love it! Never seen another model 99F in a .243.. great guns, I’ve shot bear and deer with it and my oldest son took his firs buck last year with it!

I’m going to find out if this was our contractor. I showed the wife and her jaw dropped. She’s going to make a phone call tomorrow.
