This meant to be funny ?
That was the rifle/shotgun I was thinking about. They apparently made it in .223 and 12Ga at one point. For the simplicity of procuring ammo, .223 may be preferable over .22 hornet.

I don't get it either.
It's like a lot of non-sequitur posts where someone asks one question and gets an answer to another.
E.g.:
Question: "How tall are you?"
Answer: "Banana".

FWIW - I did see a couple of those Savage combo's for sale at the Frederick Show yesterday. Mostly older, so no 223/12's...

Based off what I own....my .30-30 Win lever action and 1911 .45 pistol
Based off what I would bring if I could get some new toys....45-70 gov lever action all day

Just curious, why a Taurus when the same thing could be had in a Smith or Ruger especially when your life might depend on it?
Caliber(s)??

For great Justice
If there were enough bears in the area where I was planning to hike that I felt the need to hike with a long gun, then would probably find somewhere else to hike, but if no other choice then probably a decent 12ga semi loaded with Fed DP plated slugs. In most places reasonably safe, Would probably prefer heavy Underwood 10mm or 45 super in a full size large frame GLOCK, reliable enough, and 16 rounds at 750 FPE with a fast reload beats 6 slightly more powerful slugs from a revolver, especially in the likely event some will miss as you mag-dump at a charging bear.
