Thread: Modern side by side

if you are over 30yrs old pretty much ANY new SXS should outlast you.
I fired 3 rounds of steel out of my old Bakail SXS last night to kill 3 rabbits...the 3rd shot was flung in a hurry and connected nicely.....we use 3 older Bakails with steel shot on the ducks...havent looked like missing a beat yet.
fitting a decent recoil pad will make power of difference to felt recoil.
go to shop....try shotgun for fit....preferably throw up towards a mirror so you can SEE how well it aligns.....a shotgun that fits you well shits all over the highest priced one that doesnt..... the reason my old SXS got taken for walk last night...I knew shots could be in a hurry and rabbit kittens arent a big target,for what its worth, was using falcon steel #4s as that was smallest loads I had.
