I haven't looked for 2400 in stores, but it is unavailable anywhere on-line that I've checked. Bullseye and Unique can be hard to fine too, and I'm not sure why. All three have been popular for many years, so I'm not sure why they don't make more.

Can't find it anywhere online.

Give it time and you'll see it start showing up again like Unique and Bulls Eye are starting to.
