That’s pretty sad... I wonder how common that is.

The trouble is shooting at turkeys one aims as if shooting a rifle, so point of impact is critical. And if one is off by a little at forty yards while aiming and the center of the pattern is off by a couple of feet already, then it is a miss or a cripple, a disaster. I do not find that happens in single barreled guns as most shoot right on the money.

Very common I think. I tried three doubles today. All were bad. When experimenting with the TSS I tried a 20 VH and a 20 Fox SW as well as a VH 12. All were off except the Franchi 48AL in 20 was the only one that shot to point of aim.

jerry i have known this for several years that a single barrel gun shoots to point of aim a way better than double barrels....thats why you must shoot on paper to see where it throws the shot on target...i have one parker ten ga that shoots 2 foot high at 40 yards bad off target....most of my guns the doubles do pretty good aimingat the breast and will put the load in the head area...charlie

What does it matter where the LASER points so long as the pattern goes to your "point of aim".

That’s true Bob. There’s no alternative to patterning a gun to learn where it puts the majority of it’s shot charge.

The first thing that hit me when reading Jerry's post is this: Don't SXS barrels have a slight bend outwards from the direction the breech is pointing? Wouldn't the laser from the breach indicate a cross fire?
