I was infatuated with them for a while. The older wooden stock guns were solid guns...that were absolute tanks. The newer ones are OK...but some have the scope mounts attached on only one side and the scope will move with some pressure on it.
The problem with them lies in the fact that with 2 barrels, they cannot both be completely accurate. They are set at a slight angle to each other...and eventually they will not shoot in unison. I had one that I put a raised scope mount on and the .223 was sighted in using the scope, the 12ga the iron sights. That worked the best. The reason I did this was because the point of impact was about a foot different at 50yds.
I had another 12ga/22 hornet that was a great gun. At 50yds they both would hit the 12ga w/ slug and the horned would pretty much group on top of each other. At 100yds they weren't bad...but not great, either.
I had a lot of combos of them until I realized that I never really needed both guns at the same time...so I sold them and replaced with more practical guns. I was a nice newer .223/12 the other day with rings on it...the shop wanted $400 for it. That's pretty standard.
