Mounting a scope on Savage 24

[dovehunter]

My model 24 is one of the newer ones with the integral mount base. I used Weaver mounts & their see-thru rings on mine with a 4x scope. I've never had any problems with mine either wacking me in the forehead or loosening of the scope and/or mounts when shooting the shotgun barrel. My scope is mounted with the adjustment turrets between the front and rear rings. My son's M 24 is one of the older ones with just the usual .22 3/8" dovetail. We mounted a 4x scope on his using just Weaver .22-type see-thru rings and snugged them down tight. We've not had any problems with his either when shooting the shotgun barrel, at least on an occasional basis.
