I use an o/u for turks, and I love it. I use a full choke for the top barrel and a modified for the under. I figure that if I have to use the second barrel, I've already missed with the first shot and I want to open up with the second. I've not had to use the second barrell yet on a bird, though. I shoot a Fausti imported by Traditions. Is it a Red Label or Citori? Nope, and I'd never claim it was even close, but for what I use it for and the difference in prices between my Fausti and the two above, I'm happy. But I'm by no means an "o/u guy" so for me the function is more important than the look and the Fausti gets it done. Carlson makes some aftermarket chokes for the Fausti, and those have performed well. As far as saying an o/u isn't as good as a pump or autoloader because you have 1 (or more) less shots, it is true, but honestly, if you've whiffed on the first 2 shots, you don't have a good shot of hitting the bird (which is sure to be in flight by now)with an extra shot anyhow.

To each his own, but I'll stick with my o/u for turks even though I own other shotguns. The o/u just seems to be a good fit for what I need when it comes to turks.
