So I've used he classifieds quite frequently on NWFA, but have a question maybe some of you can help me out with. I have a savage 99M in .284 win that I am going to start load developing for it and start hunting with it (and yes I know how rare and awesome it is!). It was my grandpas for 30+ years before I traded for it years ago and he recently passed so it has quite a bit of sentimental value and is never leaving my possession.
All that being sad the blueing on the barrel is near perfect but there is a lot of finish wear on the receiver and starting to get a little patina from years of use. My question is would it be sac religious to do something about the receiver like refinish/blue it to protect it, or should I just keep piling it and letting nature take its course.
Any opinions would be appreciated!
