For example does LOP on a single trigger roughly translate to the front of a DT? Is cast much different SxS compared to O/U. I think I've gotten the answer already and it's been helpful, and I thank the many PM's I've received which have been invaluable. Great forum.

I recall reading in an issue of SSM that Chris Batha, an Englishman with over 30 years of experience fitting shotguns, writing that he had found a S X S requires a 1/2" longer LOP than an O&U for most individuals.
