I never realized there are so many of you with the model 24 savages... I love my 22lr 20 ga shoot pretty good and have killed lots of rabbits and grouse with it... Maybe just the 223 12 gauge would be fine if i just got some good slugs to shoot through it in case of seeing a bear...
In archery we have something like the way of the superior man. When the archer misses the center of the target, he turns round and seeks for the cause of his failure in himself.

My dad has two of the 22/410 Savage's which is what my brother and I used to shoot our first grouse. We only had one back then, but recently he found another one at a garage sale or an auction (can't remember which) and bought it so he'd have two. I think he's wanting to have one for each of my two daughters when they get old enough to hunt. I hadn't shot grouse with it for years until just recently. Last year I was over in the Naches area helping a friend on an early permit elk hunt in September and I brought it along because it doesn't take up much space in the truck. I ended up killing three nice blue grouse with it. That was pretty cool since I hadn't shot a grouse with it for 30 years or more.
