Quote: I under stood both but was extra surprised in the choice of calibres. In a bolt gun, it indeed approaches the .308, especially if it has a longish throat & enough room in the mangazine.
I’ve got a 99A in .300 Savage with receiver sight, makes a decent saddle rifle. The vintage Brit Mannlichers are a bit too nice to risk beating them up in a scabbard on horseback. - Mike
