RE: Over Under or Side by Side?
It is like Johnch wrote, your sight picture will be better with an O/U. I like the choice of chokes. I can set up a more open choke in the bottom barrel for close shots out of my pointing brittany, and tighter long-range choke in the top. This can be done in a sxs also. I have found that most O/U's are designed to shoot botton first, top last. I have seen guns break down quick if you reverse this constantly.
