Widely different chokes, such as cylinder, or skeet, in bbl one, and tight, as in mod or full in bbl two, paired with double triggers is as close to nirvana as you can get in a field gun, in my humble opinion, of course.
I have a 32" BHE 12 gauge with 6k first bbl, an 40k in the other. This gun is like arsenic on pheasants!

Gary, it will be good to see that one back "home".

I'd like to acquire a 410 hammer gun with 30 inch barrels. Perhaps Sanford will give up such a prize.

Charles Hellis is a good maker. 30's will be tough to find but they are out there. Most of them I've seen are 26 and whippy. The full chokes wouldn't pose a problem. What are the dimensions? Perhaps a motivational picture
