.22 Savage High Powers & 12 bore combos
#346546 - 05/11/20 10:38 AM

The used and new firearms dealer tradeexcanada usually has quite a number of these BRNO's, Valmet and CZ's for sale - 78 of them, in total on 3 pages, + some drillings.

https://www.tradeexcanada.com/content/brno-zh305-combination-gun-22-hp-over-12ga-0
https://www.tradeexcanada.com/content/cz-584-03-mod-2-cpl-combination-gun-12ga-over-56x52r
https://www.tradeexcanada.com/content/valmet-combination-gun-12ga-over-56x52r-0

Some time ago, I bought a Zoli combo gun in 12 bore and .222 Rem. from them. Nice shape, but haven't shot it yet, either barrel.

I was looking at those Valmets myself, with the rifle barrels over the shotgun barrels.

This one, an over under in .308 is considerably more.

They also have a bunch of Verney Carron SxS's as well.

I have one with barrels in :

12-b/.223
12-b/7x65R
.30-06/.30-06
9.3x74R/9.3x74R
and
12-b/12-b

I think adding a .450/400 DR barrel set to it would be very cool.

Have also been intrigued in re-chambering the .30-06 barrels to .30 Super Flanged. Just because ...

Have never used the 7x65R, waiting for ammo. Covid-19 is delaying big time its shipment.

Never used the .30-06 barrels. For actual hunting the 9.3mm's do everything anyway.

This rifle is extremely accurate. If used as a single shot, I think it could be used similar to a bolt action. Need to do some long range testing on it.

Also verify the stability of the barrels and bullet impact. I had trouble in Namibia, where they shot widely apart??? Then on return to Australia, when tested, shot together again >??? !!!! User error in Namibia????

I had to go to their website to make sure your listings weren't archived from years past. I'm amazed at those prices, when a garden variety Savage 24 sells here for much more. Not that I'm denigrating the Model 24; my first shooting was done with the only firearm we had in the house, my father's Stevens .22/.410, complete with Tenite stocks.

These are very good prices. I have a Brno ZH305 Combination Gun in 22 HP over 12GA that I paid $725.00 back in 2014. I did a google search for other ZH305's and found this on Guns International. If they sell at this price I may have to sell mine.

I've always had interest in one..but have never "pulled the trigger" ..

Feel one in 20 gauge/ .222 or .223 would be a great combo where I live--upland and coyotes..

I agree, RIPP - 20 bore and .222 would work well.

Jim - while that model 305 looks to be in new condition - that price $2,597.00 is ridiculous.

Dozens of Valmets, CZ584-03's and 305's, at tradeexcanada and all under $500.00.
2.25 pages with 40 per page, so 90 guns, of which about 10 are higher priced drillings, something over $2,000.00.

BRNO 502.1 = 12 x 5.6x52R $395.00

Ripp,

I would not pass up a 12 or 20 bore combination with a 5.6X50R or a 5.6X52R barrel. I find mine work great on our BC coyotes.

Yes those prices are very attractive.

Just had to get my Antonio Zoli 12 bore over .222 out for a look over. Nicely engraved action, plain wood. All of the .222 ammo for my Sako A1 chambers perfectly, so one of these days??
I do have some 50gr. Hornady SP's loaded for deer, but haven't fired it yet. The upper barrel's chamber actually looks like it's cut for a 3" hull, but is not marked as such.

Yes - I just got word today that my order of yesterday to Tradeexcanada is expected here, late on the 24th. Not a rifle, just a spare 'complete' Mauser bolt with commercial shroud.
Hopefully, it will match one of my actions - lol.

Mine is 12 over 5.6 X 50R. Works really well for predator calling.

Iron sights or do you have it scoped?
The rib on mine is drilled and tapped, so I could put a red-dot on it - that would work. Who knows, maybe the iron sight will be close enough with one or another bullet weight and load? Still haven't shot it, yet.
I was thinking of it as a grouse gun using cast bullets in the .222. I have a couple moulds in that calibre.
