jOe; Neat thread. I started with a Model 17 Remington when I was about 8 years old. I grew up shooting skeet, so it was Remington 1100 and O/U for many moons. After my Dad died about 30 years ago, I got hooked on SxS shotguns, because Im an upland game hunter. They are the prettiest of guns and are a gentlemans upland gun. Started out with a Model 21 and then jumped to the English guns. I can shoot a SxS pretty well, but never quite as good as an O/U. If I really want to kill grouse, I take my Browning Superposed 20 ga. Quail are a lot easier to hit, so no problem shooting them with a SxS. One caveat.....a gun must fit me pretty close to ideal dimensions to be good for me, no matter if O/U or SxS.
