410
I grew-up on a farm in central Illinois and the Savage 24 with .22 over 410 was the perfect squirrel and rabbit gun. Killed the animal and left plenty of meat for the dinner table. On the farm if you needed to kill skunk, raccoon, snake etc.. in those days the 410 was cost effective and a lower risk to injure livestock. Today I rarely put the 410 tubes in my Superposed and shoot skeet as I really enjoy shooting the .28 gauge. But when I visit family in Illinois and squirrel hunt it seems like the Savage 24 always comes out of the vault.
