One advantage the 24 has over guns like the Nitro Special is that the stock dimensions are better. Pretty shootable. A lot of Nitros have too much drop. 24's are also all 2 3/4" chamber guns, which isn't always the case with other American doubles in the same price range. Personally, I'd take a Nitro or a Western Long Range or a Hunter Fulton over a 24--IF those guns have shootable dimensions. And I'd probably save money as well (assuming you don't pay REAL Lefever $ for a Nitro) because that Winchester name bumps up the value.
