Generally, the front trigger/right barrel is the more open choke unless the gun is choked F/F in both barrels. There are even a few Parkers originally choked with the right barrel tighter. How is yours choked?

Trap shooting, which originally involved live birds, was always shot with both barrels at the same bird... it was in the rules - otherwise there wouldn't be a need for the second shot or barrel.

My how times change! "Vintage Trap" still allows both barrels to be fired at the same bird if the first shot is ineffective.
