The early 99's were kind of "Hand fit" sometimes, so that is true. I load up a couple blanks and try them out before getting too involved. I have an old heavy, long barreled .303 in the closet yet. I had tried .250 Savage in it and it feeds fine. The game plan was to convert it over, but it has been sitting a while now. You all know how that goes. Point is, some of those 99's will feed almost anything, and others just will not. There is a good supply of brass so leaving it a .303 would not be a bad idea. I started out using 30-30 loads because I could not find any load information when .303 brass became available again.
