You get what you pay for.
Rossi built their company by making knockoff's of Winchester and other gun makers.
Why do you want a combo? Why not go with a rimfire and shotgun?

I have a 22 I'm trading in and I don't really have the money to throw down on two separate guns, I figure it would be ok for camping considering I would be able to just switch between the two barrels. I'm not looking for anything spectacular in accuracy just enough that I can hit say a beer can at 50 yards with the 17 hmr and just for farting around with the 12 gauge.

If money is your prime concern, then you can't beat the Rossi.
I have friends with a Rossi and they swear by them. If you're just looking to plink then have at it.

My friend has one and the .17 is very accurate and we never have shot the .20 gage. But we are not done with it yet.
