Actually that famous tiger photograph was a publicity photo used by the factory. That rifle was chambered for the then-new .22 Savage High Power with 70 grain bullet, back in 1915. Funny how it took NATO 40 years to end up back with a 70 grain bullet.....

Read Caldwells book the Blue Tiger and you will see that little 250 Savage 99 killed many other Tigers plus plenty of other big game. http://www.amazon.com/Blue-Tiger-Harry-R-Caldwell/dp/1930585381
