There's a Ruger O/U in 30/40 Krag somewhere local--I knew the original owner. Hell-for-stout, but it has all the balance and grace of a Mauser T-Gewehr. I'm not sure anyone ever hunted with it, but I know it stood up to several hundred full-power loads without problems.

I just can't see putting the work into building a double-rifle that is THAT ugly.
