Any one of Winchester Models 53, 55, or 65.

Or maybe a Remington Model 14 1/2.

0.224" - Marlin 336 in 219 Zipper
0.243" - Winchester Lee Sporter in 6mm Lee Navy
0.257" - Marlin 1893 in 25-36 Marlin
0.264" - 1st Model Newton in 256 Newton

EDIT: While I once owned a Winchester Lee Sporter in 6mm Lee Navy, I never had occasion to shoot it and I'm not sure that the bore diameter was 0.242", 0.243", or 0.244".
