They probably did make runs. Someone posted about a 99H 300 recently that was only 20 numbers off from my H 300. David

I have a checkered 383,xxx in 300. Does anyone have an earlier one that is also checkered? The earliest checkered EG I have in my data is a pair of .22HP's in the 384xxx range. All the other calibers and Spiegels (changed from checkered butt to butt and forearm checkered) are in the 386xxx range.

David,
The beauty of Savage collecting is you're never done! When I first started many years ago with a 303 sav, hey wouldn't it be great to have all the savage calibers. Well that only took a few months and 4 rifles later. Then hey wouldn't it be great to have all 13 calibers. Well that took me about a year. Then I should have a 1895, a MHG and a cased set to really have a collection. That was about another 6 months. Then wouldn't it be great to have all the calibers of EG's that took a couple of years. Then I really liked the 1899C's let get all them, might as well throw in a 1895C too! Well that got me stuck. Never found an 1899 C in 32-40 that had enough condition for me. So while stuck on that lets work on barrel bands and the checkered and uncheckered EG's. Well after well over 125 savages and life changes I stepped aside. Now I only have about 10 which are all rifles that I hunt with.
