I say a take down 30-30/12 g over and under with 20” barrel. Singe shot 30-30 can be loaded stiff with 150 gr Nosler Partition and the 12 g can be slug, buck or bird shot w/ threaded chokes.

Savage (I think) used to make one without the take down and threaded choke. Someone should again.

I've looked for something similar to that, and can remember in the 1970's, seeing several like you describe.
But those combos are hard to come by now.

The is also the Valmet 412 series of rifle/shotgun double. The .222 Rem over 12 gauge was once the most prized turkey gun in Penn's Woods when there were 2 seasons (Spring and Fall) and one was rifle legal. Savage may have even marketed the Valmet at one point but I'm not sure if they were re-badged with the Savage name. They were definitely a level or two higher quality than the 24 models.
