Stans comments four posts above are about as dead on as youll find. I shoot SXS guns exclusively at everything but I also dont shoot competitively. I just enjoy them and have no ego that needs currying. The O/U wins on every point except, with a very few exceptions, it can never have the soul a hand crafted double has. Heck, if Im hunting four legged game Ive got a flintlock rifle in my hands and love every minute of it though any centerfire rifle ever made runs circles around it. There is so much more to life than having to get more than the other feller.
