Stopped in at one of the few pawn shops in my area and found this Japanese Type 99 . It was Sporterized with a Lyman Peepsight. Pawnshop did not know for sure what caliber it was. $131 out the door. Got it home and of course got on Google and was reading about how a lot of the rifles had been converted to 30-06 . Sure enough 30-06 dropped right in. Did a test fire and bolt opened perfectly and brass look great. Loaded up some Speer 180 grain round nose .311 bullets. Great rifle , Locks up like a bank vault. Chrome lined bore . Probably take it deer hunting this fall . FBC
