No, but now I wish I had a need to. Hadn't known that it existed. Very interesting piece of work.

Can you imagine that in .25-20 WCF or .38 Special over 28-gauge, choked Skeet? Walking a narrow trail in a densely-forested area crawling with spruce grouse, ruffed grouse, snowshoe hare, and the occasional cottontail? Well, I can, and my bankers will probably have me committed when they hear.

Their custom shop suggests they can.
"Optional: Other calibers upon request"
Hrm.
"I'd like one chambered in .404 Bumblebee over a 32-gauge- 2-1/14" choked Extra -Extra Emew."
"We do not know these chamberings. Nor this constriction."
"I made them up. Ah, umm, I mean, they're wildcats. I'll send you my dimensions and expected pressures on a a cocktail napkin."
"It will take three years as we must orders special reamers, but, yes."

I remember at a Bonhams view a Heym .410 over a .22 Savage Hi-Power.
I thought what a delightful little gun for a stroll in the woods.
I picked it up (not that I could have afforded to bid for it).
It weighed 9 pounds!
I lowered it gently back into the rack.
