A training session with your DG double rifle can be hard on you sholder, your eyebrow and your wallet...
Here is my solution....
SxS shotgun with two .22 Hornet insert barrels and red dot.

Ok, but give more details.

What gauge is the shotgun, where did you get the hornet inserts/who makes them, and show some targets so we can see what kind of accuracy that can be expected. Oh, and do you need a gunsmith to install them.

Please
 
Looks interesting. If available in a 410 it would be a fun small game set up. Sort of like the double rook rifles. Do you modify the extractor?
 
Very nice idea @HWL
Why did you go for insert barrels and 22 hornet rounds?

Other calibers? Or just brenneke slugs?
 
Nice. I would argue that simply using a classic SxS with double triggers on sporting clays is just about as effective.
 
Chaszel makes 18” and 24” inserts in various calibers/guages. No gunsmithing required. Uses O rings to seal insert tube.
 
My interest in doubles is mostly theoretical since they don't really match my hunting style but I've been fortunate to shoot a few.
 
We use heavy double shotguns we shoot slugs and buckshot through it but we also shoot a lot of doves and pidgeons. DRY fire is a must too .We control and cull hogs and water buffalo with our #chapuis rifles.

See you are from Denmark - see quite a few Danes where I stalk in Scotland - great hunters.
The Harkilia stuff works well in Africa - I have a bit for use here in UK.
I am again looking for 600 Nitro dies preferably RCBS 1 inch. The set I purchased previously are 1 1/2 inch and do not fit my die. Another member has graciously taken them off my hands. If anyone happens to have a set of 600 Nitro Dies that will fit my Rockchucker Supreme RCBS press, please shoot me a message and thanks in advance for any assistance you may have to offer!
I have not posted any items for sale on this forum and will not every put anything for sale. My account was hacked and I've worked with the admin to get things shut down.
