What it is
{"overview":"The Leitz 250 Reporter, commonly known as the Leica 250, is a 35mm screw-mount rangefinder camera built around extended film magazines that hold enough stock for 250 exposures per load. Inspect for re-plating, swapped top plates and mismatched serial numbers between body, back and magazines, and be wary of FF bodies later upgraded to GG specification, as these sell below untouched examples.

Questions
Is a Leitz 250 Reporter a usable camera or a collector's piece?
In practice it is almost exclusively a collector's camera: the 250-exposure cassettes are scarce and the mechanism is fragile, so most examples are bought for display and preservation rather than regular shooting.
