I guess you can try to rebarrel an old Savage 99 (One of my very favorite rifles.) But why not just buy a new one...used of course.
You'll pour more money into the rebuild than you will for a new rifle. They made zillions of 99 Savages, after looking around a while you'll find a good one. They always have them in gun shows.
I bought a featherweight a while ago for $300 in 308. That's plenty of round for a 99. My favorite 99 is one of those take down 300 Savages. I don't have one, however. I mean with the 308 why get another a 300?
I also have a 95 Savage in 303 (they all are). It's a old guy, but shoots like a dream.
The 250/3000 is a great round. You'll have to hand load though, but that's no big deal.
Anyway, I'd forget rebarreling, and go for a new one. It's cheaper, easier and you'll be happy with it, I'm sure.
