Well, received the 2400 last week and still can't believe the condition of this gun given its age. A one-inch area of slight discoloration on the rib at mid-barrel, a couple of safe marks only visible if the gun is held just right under good light, and VERY little evidence of firing. The only combos I had ever held before this one (combos of any kind are rare in my part of the country, don't even see them at gun shows) were the Savage 24's--the difference in quality is so much that I won't make a comparison--if you have held both, you know. I made a promise that I wouldn't ask more questions, so I won't; however, if anyone has any tips on sighting in/barrel adjustment, I'm all ears. Have a 1.5-5 Leupold on the gun in Super Low Leupold rings ready for sighting. Been holding and rubbing on this gun for a week now, can't wait to shoot it...budding fanatic, maybe???

They're great shooters, very accurate.

To regulate the rifle and shotgun to shoot the same place, adjust the sights to shoot to the shotgun barrel POI. Then, use the rifle barrel adjustments to shoot the same place.

There is a bit of windage adjustment in the folding rear sight. There are two very small screws that work as the sight pivots. You can loosen one side and screw the other side more to move it. BE CAREFUL. The rear sight is fragile, and don't over tighten. The front sight is stationary, but it can be filed down to shoot higher, or you might need to fabricate one (they are very simple) that is higher to shoot lower.

THE Barrel regulating screws are windage at the muzzle, and elevation at the center wedge. Any small change moves POI a LOT!

Congratulations!! cool cool
