I've been hankering for a good over/under rifle/shotgun combo here lately. I don't know where to start.
Ideally, I'd like something along .270 over 12ga. But I'm not even sure if there's one of the o/u's made like that.
I can handle .222 over 20ga or something like that as well.
Basically, I want a blued barrel, breakover, combo gun.
I had an M6 Scout that I sold a long time ago that was .22/.410, I thoroughly enjoyed it, but I need something with good knockdown power now.
I'd like it to have about a 20" barrel, give or take.
No smaller than 20ga on the shotgun part.
And I'd really like at least a .243 on the rifle barrel.
The main purpose is for those dual hunting days. While it's still legal to take dove and deer on the same days. Every other day of the week belongs to the .30-30.
It sucks to be in the field hunting dove and a 6 or 8 point buck comes out of the brush and all you have is birdshot.
Any suggestions, also, I'd like to keep the price reasonable. I'd really like to stay around 3-400, but I don't know what the going rate is for a good, solid, dual purpose combo.
Edit: It also needs to be capable of putting a sling on it.
