90% of my doubles (S X Ss and O/Us) reside in LOM and takedown cases, but are transported to and from hunting, and the range, in a variety of full length soft cases. I don't really fret over the soft cases being "appropriate" for the vintage doubles, being more concerned with their ability to protect the guns inside. Modern materials and construction often trump aesthetics. As an example, my vintage duck guns ride in a boat to the blind in a floating, waterproof soft case that just happens to be camo. Duck boats, and retrievers, can be rough on nice old guns.
