Unfortunately the guy on 24 web site is no longer making them.However I have a guy (he lives in Arcadia FL)who will make one and boy can he make them.He made a butt stock carrier for my H&K 300 which holds 2 15 round mags--it acts like a cheek rest.He has several different colors of leather--I got a shoulder rig for my Dan Wesson super mag in "peanut brittle" His name is Daniel Feijoo 863-443-3385 TownnCountryFL gmail,com I've never been able to post pics to this site but my 24 collection has 24 F's in 17 remington,223,22H and 30-30. My V series are 22-250,357max and 222 But the 2400 is my favorite --in 222,308 and 22 savage high power-- because I can use my 12/12 and 20/20 O/U barrels as well

The 22-250 sound like potentially dangerous rechamber job in a Savage 24.

To revive an old thread, I may be about to take the plunge on a 24V.
Saw an ad in the little paper that comes out Thursday and called today to see if was still available. Gentleman says yes, a few callers but nobody really seemed terribly interested. A few didn't even really know what he was selling.
His is in 222/20. I wish I has such a critter a few months back while rabbit hunting as I took a break to sit on a stump and Mr Wiley showed up. Just traipsing down a slight rise straight toward me. All I had was my 870 express in 20g with #6 small game loads. I made the mistake of trying to quietly get my phone out to take a pic if he happened to come close enough for one of those without getting in range of the #6's. He heard me at what I later paced off to 69 paces, stopped and looked at me for a bit, didn't like what he saw and took off at a lope. Worse part might have been that he was in prime winter coat and was a big dog too. I have a feeling the .222 would have dropped him at 69 yards.
So folks, is $475 a decent price for a 24V with a 4xLeupold on it? He says it's in good shape, not excellent, just "good". First I'm available to go look at it is on Tues. DO I call him back with a firm yes? He's even willing to drive an hour or so to split the distance.
Thanks for all the great info on this thread too.
Geno That sounds like a very good deal to me. I paid more than that for mine and it has no scope.

OK all you expert Savage combo guys, did I do alright or did I get reamed? Rifle 24V A(?), .222/20g, sling, scope, 1 box factory .222, 2 boxes of reloads (I'll pull the bullets and fill them again myself), appears to me to lock up nice and tight, $475 cash. Scope says Leupold M8 4X. [img:center] [/img] Showing general condition, I didn't see any rust, just a few tiny "dings". [img:center] [/img] Small chip on forearm, and I'm guessing the Serial# is 21xxx blueing appears somewhat worn where a person would carry this one. [img:center] [/img] Sorry about the cell phone pics but I don't have a photo studio available. I could probably find it with a search, but off the top of heads, anyone know the twist rate on this .222 bbl? Thanks for all the help guys, now to decide if I REALLY NEED another pistol. Geno

Nope a 24V-A with ammo and a scope very decent buy at $475-if its an actual Leopold then excellent good buy IMO only bad thing about 24V-A series is only that barrel set fits that receiver--it won't accept any of the other 24V (B,C,D) series barrels in 22H,223 357 or 30-30

2400,
Appears to be a genuine Leupold. Gold ring M8-4X on objective ring Patent # and Made in USA on ocular ring Leupold on left side of scope
I kinda wondered about the bbl switching capability but didn't know what model it was until I purchased it. Won't be a big problem. Was thinking .223 would be nice as I have ammo etc for an AR, but such are the breaks.
Thanks for your input
Geno

If you want a 24v in 223/20, it wouldn't be too tough for a competent 'smith to cut a new chamber for you. It would still have a slow ROT, I think that they are cut 1-14", but should work fine with common 55 grain bullets.

Thanks 260,
I had considered the chamber reaming as it might negate the need for another set of dies. And I'm not sure this particular 24 rates high as a collectible, outside of the fact they're no longer being made.
And thanks for the info on the twist rate, lots of options in lighter weight bullets.

My grandfather had a Savage 24 that a widow had given him to pay him for some work he did for her (only plumber in a small town, and this wasn't unusual). Anyway, it was a .22lr/20ga with the top lever, connected barrels, no checkering or monte carlo stock. Any idea what exact model that was?
I have a 22lr/410 like you describe with the barrel selector being a button on the right side of the receiver that is pushed up or down to fire the rifle or shotgun barrel. The receiver is color case hardened. It is simply marked 'Model 24'. Mine was manufactured in 1961.
