There’s several inaccuracies in this article I believe, but can anybody shed light on Remington and Winchester being owned by the same company at one time? The author claims that under the section about the Savage 99....but I ain’t buying that one just yet. Did he just make that up or what?

Re: Outdoor Life Article
Financial hard times are nothing new for Remington. In 1888 the company was bought out of receivership by a partnership between Hartley & Graham, a major NY firearms dealer and importer, and Winchester. Thus, Winchester owned half of Remington until 1896 when the arrangement ended. Rumor and speculation say this accounts for Wincheser's introduction of numerous revolutionary and highly-successful designs during this era, and Remington's comparative lack of same.
