Been coming here for a while, but finally signed on today... My 24 exp. started with a 22mag./20 then 222/20 24V series C. Couple months ago I picked up a 357/20 24V series D. Reamed the mag. to max. and now I think I have a new favorite 24. Barely had time to get loads worked up before putting a few miles on Maxi in the Va. mountains. First day I was able take a nice 6 pt. with it and loved its performance. Today I am putting together a few squirrel loads with some 125 gr. cast/5gr. Trailboss ... this should complete its abilities from mice to moose as the say. Would love to have the 22hornet/20 always looking but kinda pricey (nice one on GB now) Sorry for long first post ....Again just saying Hi....  |

Hi, Welcome. I've got one just like yours...reamed to max. Mine is cut to 18.5 inches and threaded for chokes. It's a super versatile gun.....38s, .357s, .360s and Maxis....#9 shot to buckshot and slugs. The little sucker is a shooter on top of it. I didn't have it ready to go for this rifle season. I took my buck with my Handi Rifle custom .356/.358. It is identical to the shorty 16.5 inch .45-70 shown, but an inch and a half longer. Attachments:

Decided to join. Just won an auction for a Savage 24 in .22M over 20 ga. I looked at the newer model 42 and not impressed. I have owned 2 model 24s in my life. My first was a 24V in .30-30 over 20 ga. Traded it for a Jonboat. Later got a .22M over 20 ga. Shot quite a few squirrels w/it. Looking for a .22 LR over 20 ga now.
