You can get them custom-made on certain shotgun boxlocks at reasonable prices.
Honestly though I think the double is more than a little an artifact of history. It's faster than a bolt, but not really faster than a lever (especially on the 3rd+ shot) and they're very heavy. With the advent of levers with NE level performance, it's hard to imagine we'd be doing doubles if we did it over again. A .50-110 lever (that is perfectly regulated ) can be built for ~$2000.
Here's a nice Chapuis for under $7K:
