C Native;
I bought a .45-70 barrel insert for a 12 ga of mine from these folks:

http://www.mcace.com/

The insert went into the 12 ga barrel of my OU .22 hornet/12ga Savage turkey gun with a Bushnell Trophy 1.5 to 4 scope. It worked fine with reasonable 100 yard accuracy, except for one problem:
I could not leave the rifle insert in when I took the gun turkey hunting and then I had to go through a tedious allignment procedure to get the barrel shooting where I wanted it without messing up the scope zero for the .22 hornet. I still have the barrel, but have not shot it in years.

Check out this MCA (Multi Caliber Adapters) site and see what you think.

CRS, did you try cutting witness marks on the insert

and barrel? I've always kind of wanted one of those, and wonder if it would work.
OK, OK, I made the jump.
