Cousin looking for a 12g/30'06 double

I purchased a brand new BRNO Combo gun in 12ga/30-06 around two years ago.

I ordered mine through Prophet River .....
Now, I had some issues with it .... the firing pin of the 30-06 barrel broke after only 10 rounds, and I had to get it repaired on warranty by Wolverine Supplies.

I was able to get a 2" group at 100 meters with Federal 180 grain ammo:
And this is the pattern with Federal #6 shot at 20 meters:

Trade-ex has 7x57 over 12ga for $895
Yeah, 7x57R...the giftee is not a reloader, and trying to talk a fudd like him into a different cartridge then 30'06 is like trying to get someone to change religions. He did say a 300 Win mag would be acceptable if no 30'06 available, which is actually more impossible to find.
There are doubles chambered in 300WM, they can be had, but you'll likely have to import one, and wait to get it built. 12/30RBlaser is around, or at least easier to get, but, ammo isn't exactly corner store stuff. Cdn Tire and CSC keep it here in Cgy, I got some from Wolverine, Epps and Tradex over the years also. It's a rimmed 30-06AI.
