What caliber of Savage reloading tool(s) do you have? This is Savage brand, only (no Winchester, Lyman, etc.).
How many of the boxes they were shipped in do you have? (NOTE: This poll box is not current nor working correctly)

Can we talk straight eight presses and shotshell presses? I have two of each (including those I left at the east fest). I also have no Savage reloading dies for my rifle presses.

I have five (Savage model 1904) 303 tools, two 38-55 tools and one 25-35 tool. One 303 set is in the original box with decapper, charge cup and original instructions. Box has end label but top label is gone, interior label on top remains. One of the 303 tools has replacement wood on the handle... probably from an old scythe. 25-35 tool has a slight modification to the die to apparently allow for seating round nose or pointed bullets. I have never seen a 30-30 or 32-40 Savage 1904 tool. BillR Not certain how to enter multiple data into poll!

I entered one 25-35, one 303, one 38-55 and one box. Rick, can you add the other 38-55 and four 303 tools. Poll won't allow me to "vote" more than once. BillR

Thanks for the extras, Bill. I thought there had to be more .303 tools some where.
I heard that the poll would only take one of each, so... if anyone else has tools they could not post please let me know (post or PM) and I will keep tally.
We are at: .303 ... 12 .30-30... 5 .25-35... 4 .32-40... 3 .38-55... 5 box...... 4

1903-1907. After 1907 there was no info listed on reloading of any kind.

We are at: .303 ... 13 .30-30... 5 .25-35... 4 .32-40... 3 .38-55... 5 box...... 4
I thought the .30-30 was the hard one to find as that is the one that I am missing. But looks like it might be the .32-40 which would be the same as in the rifles.

Take out the boxes and calculate percentage.
303 43.3% 30-30 16.7% 25-35 13.3% 32-40 10.0% 38-55 16.7%
These results are based on only 30 tools. There must be more data available. Does anyone have access to the antique tool collector's sight? (they charge $35/year now) Maybe a survey of their members would generate a larger sample.

Let use know what you see. Savage sold reloading equipment after WWII. It might be later stuff.

Add to my list that I have the conversion kits to load 28, 20 and 12 gauge shells, all Savage brand. Looking for the ever elusive 410 kit.

Here is one on eBay right now I believe...??? If I am wrong... Oh well...!!! I "DO NOT CARE" that it is a live auction...!!! Mike... http://cgi.ebay.com/Vintage-Savage-...tZLH_DefaultDomain_2?hash=item19b816b509
All said, the Savage 99 is a genius of a rifle. Although no longer produced, it remains highly revered, as it was the foundation from which Arthur Savage built one of America's great gun companies. >> (Jon Y. Wolfe) <<
