Yes...that is a dumb idea. The 220 was engineered as a 20 ga., so 12 ga. is not even possible.
I'm looking for a true stainless steel shotgun, and the savage 220 stainless thumbhole looks to be the only true stainless (not cerakote) on the market currently. However, I would personally try to remove the 20 gauge slug barrel and but a smoothbore 12 gauge barrel on. How dumb of an idea is this, and is it even possible with the other parts of the action being made for 20 gauge?
