I picture 99s with glossy 4x Leupolds or era Lyman Alaskans and Noske 2x in adjustable mounts.
Dang it. I need another 99....

LOL - yeah, not what one would expect to see on a 99 lever for sure. I'm pretty sure the 99C had a 4x Bushnell on it when I bought it. I can check, that scope ended up on my Ruger 10/22
It did fit nicely and I used it on the 99C for two years. Then I got some surprise x'mas money and there was this sale on at Cabela's and the Remington 700 I really wanted was $100 off and next thing you know, I'm moving the scope to my Remmy.
If I had the $ for another real good quality scope, like the Swarovski X5, I'd put the Z5 back on my Savage. They were a sweet combination!
