Although final verdict must await actual receipt and inspection of course, I am well pleased with a successful online auction bid today for some antique Winchester loading tools for the .45-75 - what I believe to be a Model 1880 "Small Handle" loading tool, a Model 1894 loading tool and a bullet mould … all of which appear to be in pretty good shape from the single online photo.

The auction included quite a number of antique loading tool lots, but unfortunately the descriptions were lacking any specific detail regarding condition, so I am keeping my fingers crossed that they will be in useable condition, based on their apparent external condition.
Although I have a Lee Hand Press for "field loading" (the kind that takes the same dies used in a bench-mounted press) I have long thought it would be neat to have an actual original vintage loading tool for that purpose … now, I hopefully have
two different vintage tools for the .45-75 cartridge!
