What round does a Savage Arms Model 59 A use?
I cannot find a "Savage Model 59A" in any reference book - are
you certain of the model number?
There is a common Savage rifle, the Model 99A, which was
chambered for .303, .30-30, or .300 Savage. The caliber markings
will be on the barrel.
If it is a .22 then it is almost always chambered for .22 Long
Rifle. If it is chambered for .22 short, it will be marked as
such.
If in doubt, take the gun to a local gunsmith for a professional
appraisal.
The savage arms 59a is a bolt action 410 shotgun. Should have
Stevens name on it above savage arms corporation.
