Scully Posted January 15, 2021 Report Share Posted January 15, 2021 2 hours ago, London Best said: But you are a competitive clay shooter, are you not? Or at least a very keen clay shot. I don’t know if you ever shoot game or if you have ever tried a SxS. I have used a variety of O/U over the years and I really don’t like them. I don’t go stalking with a target rifle, why would I want to shoot game with a target gun? OU’s are available as ‘game’ models also, which I’m sure you know, but I think it is this versatility which explains why OU’s enjoy such popularity with a different generation of shooters.

Out of interest has anyone got a real TC barrel - measured at 0.000" restriction that actually patterns TC - 40% at 40 yards? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have one on a Spanish gun I had bored out to parallel dimensions in 1975. No, I have never patterned it properly. But I am happy that it will kill cleanly at 40 yards. It has killed more game than any other barrel I have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For some game I'm sure it will, but that wasn't what I asked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
