I had a 24 in 222 over 20ga, pretty decent wood, surprisingly accurate, didn't balance great for a shotgun, nor really well for a rifle, but somewhere between. D@mned handy for coyotes though. Always wished I had one in 22-250 over 12ga. Personally, I think it's a model which was (re)released in an era too late for its style. Some old world type guys will still appreciate the appeal of a combo gun, so it might be right up your alley, but it's doomed to be stuck with ONLY a low cost plastic furniture model in this day and age, if it even gets to stick around at all.
