I've never cared for the black rifle "tactical" look. I love walnut stocks with beautiful wood grain and deep blue finish. I will also echo other comments about the model 99. I inherited my dad's model 99 - in .300 Savage of course, with a classic 4x weaver scope. He got a fine 4x4 mule deer and a Rocky Mountain elk with that rifle, and it was his favorite firearm.
I'm with you. Everything in the world is made in black anymore it looks ugly and it's hard to find, I don't need a tactical shaving kit, tactical luggage or a tactical pen. I like wood, brass, olive drab, just not yellow, purple, pink & etc.
Might be checking them out, I’m a lever guy, just wondering how good of groups it’ll shoot !! Who tee who get busy on testing groups !! I’ll be watching for them !!!
The 99 was available in 30-30, among many other calibers. I had one. In fact, I read that the "mad trapper" of the Canadian manhunt fame, carried one. The movie "death hunt" staring Charles Bronson, is based on the true story. Check out the movie, it is a good one. Firearms aficionados will particularly enjoy it.
Looks cool. Nice wood. Love my Henry version for plinking and squirrels, had it for many years. The buckhorn sights are very traditional, but they kind of suck. It would be great if Savage came out with a center fire lever gun too! Savage makes wonderful rifles.
Here is what I havnt been able to understand. Why has the old pump rifles more or less gone away. I love my 2 REM 760 game master pumps. .35 rem and 3006. I would love to see a pump 350 legend come to market which I could see also be appealing to those who are in a straight wall cartridge state for deer hunting but also don’t want to use an AR platform or are not allowed semi autos. personally I am more comfortable and faster with a pump action in the deer wood than I am with a lever action as well. Plus a pump action can be made to handle more pressure than most standard lever action designs as well. But for some reasons you really don’t see any new pumps actions out there.
Did few videos on my channel of the 760 gamemaster in 30-06 great shooting rifle and great deer hunting rifles took deer with last year on Sunday hunt . Big thing here Pennsylvania where we couldn't hunt deer on a Sunday 😮. Also just put a service video up on it on how to clean one and why. Also few older range video was my wifes uncles old rifle from before he passed. Got few videos on 35rem what nice shooter in levergun
I have Dad’s 30-06 on loan from my brother and my 280 Remington in 760. I use the 06 because the trigger pull is cleaner. But both have taken deer. My grandfather’s 300 Savage gets one or two every year too.
It would be pricey. I wonder if anyone would buy a cheap one with plastic stock and matt finish or coated finish, birch stock and no cartridge counter etc.
@@garyh1449 yeah I agree, as much as people would love a new 99, it would be very spendy to have the kind of quality the originals had, OR, in order to keep it affordable it would be a lot of plastic, like the 42 that replaced the 24. If they could even keep it close to 1000-1200 they’d sell, but I think it would be closer to 2k +.
@@garyh1449 I disagree.modern firearms are made by CNC machinery same as the auto industry. You set the machine up for repetitive motions and a master control computer monitors the process. There is no need for expensive human costs. You will probably not find a top notch gunsmith working in a on line firearm factory. We can only hope Savage sees the 💡.
I recently bought a model 99f in .300 Savage. Has to be the sweetest carrying rifle I ever handled. I am a bolt action rifle guy but got to say that NO bolt action I ever held in my hands can compare.
58 years old this week and I have never owned a 22lr rifle. My first boolot slinger was a 12 gauge pump I couldn’t hit the broadside of the barn from the inside.
Being that the stock is made with Turkish walnut I'm assuming it's made in Turkey. Especially at the price Savage has them listed for at $439. Very cool, but it'd be even cooler if it was made in America. They need to also make it in .30-30, .360 Buckhammer and .45-70. Regardless, it does look very nicely finished, though. Looks and sounds solid. There's nothing like the sound of a good lever action.
Just watching again. I know it's only 22LR, but it seems to eject those spent cartridges very nicely. Also, from what I can see anyway, I am also impressed with the quality of the fit and finish. Especially for the price. It seems to be well put together with straight and tight seams, clean lines and good bluing. I also like the look of the lever loop as well. The extra room will be good for gloved hands too. I think I like the look of this more than Winchester's Ranger 22LR lever gun. I just wish the Classic had the hood around the front sight like the DLX has. Regardless, It'll be interesting to see how it performs at the range. If it shoots, well done, Savage!
Beautiful lever gun ...love me some lever guns !! Wtw first year going solo hunting... any idea how Black ops Sweet molasses Block works ? An I grabbed a bag of cotton candy Deer corn to set up a spot
Very nice! There are a number of iconic rim-fire and smaller caliber center fire rifles that would be popular I think. This looks well made and the stock seems to be really nice for a budget gun.
Look at your shot on the big buck real close . It looks to me as it hit ribs at an angle & it turned the broadhead toward the front of the deer on top of the ribs & didn't penetrate deep at all . Watch how the fletching wiggles side to side as the deer leaves
@@WHOTEEWHO Everyone needs a 99! Like humans, they can be a little fussy at times but they will treat you right if you treat them right. I've had 3 over the years, A 300sav, a .308 and a .243. The last one got stolen along with my camo, stand, and the F159 they were in while I was eating breakfast at a waffle house! Needless to say, I didn't have a good hunt that day 🤬
I just knew that one day they would return to a lever action. That Revel is a beauty. I hope that in the near future we will see it in much bigger calibers! Great job WTW!!!
Picked mine up from Bass Pro tonight. Looks really good in terms of fit and finish. I wish it had a threaded barrel but I can live without it I suppose.
It will be tough to compete with Henry. They really own the 22 Lever Action Market. I would like to see a resurrection of the Savage Model 99. They had those in some pretty hefty cartridges and with the rotary mag could shoot pointed bullets.
It looks like a great contender for the price bracket, not a pot metal painted contraption like the Henry, better takedown and finish than the Winchester Ranger (if they ever release…), and a interesting modernized take on the format without being hideous or tactical. I am very curious if any of the parts besides the barrel are steel though
Amazing how much the ol lever pews have gone up, New Marlin 336 used to be 350+ now used they going 1k...glad to see another manufacture like Savage getting in the game..
Just picked one up. First lever action and im pleased, Real clean rifle. Seems well made. Lop is a little long at 14.5 inches which makes working the action feel a little awkward. Anyone have experience woth this?
Dang it Adam you're keeping me in suspense. Been thinking of getting a .308 Patriot to build a project gun. Been waiting for the follow and get excited every time I get a notification but no dice. Help a brother out here. 😊
The savage 99 was chambered for many cartridges, including the 358, 308, 243, 300 savage, 250 savage, 30-30, and 25-35. I think think it was also chambered for the 284, 7mm-08, 22-250, and 38-55, but I would have to double check on that. I believe there are other calibers that it was chambered in also. It was a fantastic rifle in my opinion.
Wonder if ruger sold to savage after they bought marlin from Remington... I still have yet to see a ruger lever anywhere. None of our distributors have any even listed.
Not bad looking. However I prefer the looks and the feel of the Henry’s myself. I know there is a cost difference but Henry is top dog with good old Missouri black walnut stocks.
I will purchase the 22 mag in it wait who am I kidding? I will buy both 22s. I sure wish we could get the bright blue on all of our bangs again. What happened to the beauty of the art pieces we love?
$800 .22 rimfires doesn’t seem to be a big market unfortunately, much as I love blued steel and walnut. Pretty impressed with this thing for the price point. Fills the gap between a trashy pot metal Henry and the steel BL-22 pretty nicely. Cover and lower tang are aluminum, the internal frame, barrel, magazine tube, lever, trigger, hammer, bolt, locking lever and cross bolt are all steel parts. The elevator mechanism is a die cast zinc part with a steel kicker lever in it. The steel frame is what all the parts are held to either by screws or the takedown pins. Should be a long lived design by first impressions
Looks like very few commentors care about it. They want the 99 back! It would be terribly expensive to make the 99 the way they used too no doubt. Winchester wants 1000+ for its current Model 94 and it's not a complicated gun.
Love to see more interest in lever action rifles. I own two Henry’s. They were both so gorgeous I almost hated to shoot them but they were not meant to be museum pieces. Plan on buying more. Never cared for the tactical look but do prefer the look of an octagon barrel.
made in canada , ontario at the old lakefield plant where the tough has nails lakefield .22 mark I & 2 where made . good lord thats why they are sold out everywhere in canada , they go for 640 to 830 cnd dollar so about 475 to 615 usd .
Savage needs to bring back the Model 99
It would be nice if they came back out with a model 99!!!

I'd buy one without even blinking.
Agreed
Does the revel say where it is made? Wondering if its really US made or foreign@@WHOTEEWHO
I’d love a 99 in 250
Looks nice.... Now we just have to persuade them to make the 99 again... 😀
Totally agree

The 99 was a Pennsylvania classic deer rifle.
@@tomcurran8470 One of the best i had a 250-3000 got stupid and traded it off years ago. What a mistake.
It works quite well out west also, judging from my personal experience.

Bout to find out
Savage need to make a 30/30 lever action
I think they do
My brother has one from like the 50s
They had an awesome 30-30 bolt action compact. I wish id never traded mine off! I can't remember the model ???
Savage 340 was the bolt action, I have the revelation variant of that rifle.

Savage needs to take notice and bring back the 99 in center fire options. They would make an endless mountain of money. Shooters want this.

You should probably stay away from firearms.
Bring back the 99, please! These cnc machines should make it easier to produce. 300wsm, 270wsm, 7mm-08, etc.
I'm with you on all the above.
Revel = Lever backwards
Golf = Flog

Made in the Lakefield plant in Canada. Curious if they are producing all the components or importing and assembly them though
Really nice looking gun.
Thats nice i still have my savage mark 2 22lr bolt action ive had it over 20 years savage makes great rifles
The Savage 22 rifles are made in Lakefield, Canada. Not sure where the Revel is made.

Hats off for Savage for a 22LR lever gun. Hopefully affordable cuz most have gone through the roof. Thanks for the heads up!!!
386 at KYGUNCO
It’s nice but I’m still made at Savage because I can’t find extra .243 mags for my 110 Axis Hunter. Make magazines already Savage!
I almost bought a 99 in 308 many moons ago for a couple hundred beans and am still kicking myself for not doing so.
Beautiful rifle!!
Heritage last year, and now Savage. Good to see levers getting some more love. I already own an old Winchester and a Henry, so I'm good (for now).
Awesome nice looking twenty two
I wish they made it in heavier caliber.
Maybe they will
BLR 30-06. BLR 300 Wind-bag. Japanese, high quality, not too light, not too heavy. What are you waiting for though?
would have to be an entirely different one to run larger stuff, maybe they will be bringing an updated savage 99

It needs a threaded barrel! I'm interested in the deluxe "DLX" model.
The issue is clearance of the tube when it comes time to load with something on the muzzle
Looks great! Glad to see levers are back. They are fun and classic.
Wow !!! I never expected that ol buddy
Nice looking Rimfire Lever Action. Ruger/Marlin do you see this, LEVER Action Rimfire! Haha
I am going to have to go get me one of them. I love the classic look.
Howdy
Does it have a half cocktail safety?
Will it feed shorts? Are scope bases available or do they come with the gun?
Thanks, keep up the good work.
Don't think it has half cock
That furniture is really beautiful
I like that hint of tiger striping on the walnut.
Doesn't get any better.....22lr and lever action. Fun little rifle thats actually practical. Great vid as always Whoot !!!

They might have some issues with the receiver stripping out when mounting rails & bases . Aluminum
That is a good point. The receiver is a cover though, maybe someone will step up and make a steel cover if these are popular enough?
@@DevinBauer ok. Ya that would work . Maybe it’s steel on top or something. I’m sure savage is on top
