Hi everyone, just got a Savage over under 22/20 model 24 F-20 and can not found a scope mount for it, Savage do not make that mount anymore part Num 104568 its a side mount, if someone know were to get one that would be great.
Thanks
 
Theres one called savage 24 perfect adapter. The biggest problem when trying to put a mount on these 24 dovetail is the rounded contour of the barrel. Most mounts don't sit down far enough to really bite into the dovetail. I used a dovetail to weaver rail made by utg. To make it work I had to use a half round file so it would have a little clearance between the base and barrel. I've fired lots of 20 ga from buckshot and slugs to target loads and never had any movement of scope or mount.
 
This is the one I linked above (fixed link). It fit well with no modification. I have attached a cheap scope loosely to check the profile

I just find the factory rear sight is horrid and the front sight is a thick block.

Has anyone replaced the rear sight with another similar aftermarket rear that fits in the dovetail?


The factory sights are pretty bad on them. I tried a folding rear sight that came off a bl22 I think and filed the front sight thinner. It did help quite a bit but I stuck with the Burris 2.75x20. I actually traded it off a few weeks ago. Liked the gun but mine was a camper with the 20" barrels and cylinder bore and the pattern drove me nuts. Last partridge I got was about 20yds under a cedar tree and couldn't get a clear enough shot with the 22 so used the shotgun. Got lucky and hit it in the head with 1 pellet. Not a single other pellet hit it.
