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.

Jerome, do you think my last post in rough camping must maybe shift as an article?

Good afternoon,

I'm trying to get in contact with Mr Butch Searcy. I have the opportunity to buy one of his rifles chambered in 577 nitro Express however the seller does not have any of the paperwork with the information about what ammunition or bullet weight was used to regulate it. I know he is not making firearms anymore but I wanted to reach out after seeing one of your post about him.

Hi - the only (best) method of sending you the .375/06IMP data is with photographing my book notes. My camera died so the only way I can do it is with my phone. To do that, I would need your e-mail address, as this
new Android phone is too complicated to upload to my desk computer, which would be easier and to down-grade, reduce the file sizes.
Best wishes
Daryl
