Up/Down guns have their place in the double gun world, but sxs just feels right.

I have an equal amount of both, but the SxS’s do feel best!

Here is a thought Dave. You might want to consider going with #6's instead of 5's in a 16 bore. You'll get greater pattern density and probably more even patterns. I have taken a ton of mallard's in Sasketechewan with the 6's to 40 yards. And the 6's are better if you are shooting smaller ducks. I have found that the 16 bores I have patterned shoot a bit better with the smaller pellet. In a 16 bore, I don't shoot smaller than #6. Just a thought....

Meant to say larger rather than smaller in my post above

Tom, thanks. I'll try both sizes at some point. I might have to start reloading bismuth if my Parker starts to overtake my A5. I shot an awful a lot of ducks with an ounce of lead 6's back in the day.
