We're somewhat missing the point here.

Agreed single triggers and one barrel to look over are the rule in the U.S.

Agreed you will see more purpose built target guns in O/U.

But most guys who like SxSs have the preference for two different reasons. The first, that it is different, has nothing to do with function. The same people often wear mechanical watches and make no apologies for their inaccuracy relative to electronic versions. The second reason is relative to weight and dynamics. To build a 12ga. O/U at the 61/2lb. mark and not use an alloy receiver becomes problematic. A true O/U game gun, new or used, is not going to be any cheaper than the same thing in a SxS.
