What would be your choice of tyre be for 24" MUni with a smaller rim,
like the 42mm KH freeride?

For mainly riding dirt and mud.

I've tried the gazz and the duro wildlife.
I found the gazz to be a lot harder to controll, but had great traction
in really muggy conditions.

Has anyone had much experience with riding narrower nokian gazz tyres?
Do they make a 2.7?

I love the huge amount of traction the 3.0 gazz has, i just dont like
the slugishness of it.

they make a 2.6"

On the subject of skinny tires, i LOVE my 2.6 kenaclaw. Iv considered
running a 2.1 or something, it would be so manuverable.

At my local MTB trail there is a hill that was too steep for too long
for me to do with a Duro Leopard tire though I tried many times. I
don't have brakes and every time I got near stalling the tire would
lose traction and I could never recover (allowing more tire movement
always resulted in uncontrollable speed). The first dozen times I tried
it with the IRC Kujo DH 24x3 I had success each and every time. Yes
riding on pavement it is sluggish with its large footprint, but I have
never wished for more turning ability on it off-road and can even do
angled turns without the tire folding on me thanks to the pinch flat
resistant sidewalls. The picture below is the downhill and another
rider giving it a gallant go with a 26x3 Gazz...
