Had a small Savage 1895 and 1899 collection years ago, and the .250-3000 chambered Savage 99's were one of my favorite cartridges! A wonderful deer or varmint cartridge that was very popular when first introduced and for years after. Younger folks don't even know what this cartridge is for the most part these days.
I still have a Savage 99 takedown built in 1930 in .250-3000 and another 1950 99EG in .250-3000 also.
