Are they worth it? Lighter than semi auto's? Been thinking of getting one for upland hunting. Was reading that a 12ga over and under is about as light as a 20 ga semi auto. I'd like to try one.
I couldn’t Imagine being reduced to two shots lol. Would drive me nuts. Might be fine when I hunt all by myself and birds are getting up one at a time. But hunting in a group, no way
Doesn't ND require a plug even for upland? That's only one more shot.
yes. And that’s 1/3 more ammo lol.Doesn't ND require a plug even for upland? That's only one more shot.
I think waterfowl tastes like ass.
I prefer a SXS. I have problems with cross dominance. I think waterfowl tastes like ass. From what I've seen on video; a waterfowl shoot is akin to the LA UFO engagement in the '40's. I prefer credit for my own kill. I don't condemn the blasting/teamwork: Not my deal.
I embrace the purity of a double gun especially if one is not wielding a M12 or A5. Many classic guns can be retro-mod to digest modern shot and not carry like a gd telephone pole. It's not cheap.

I have both, Ruger Red Label 12 o/u- carried that for a long time upland hunting and killed many birds, but now it stays in the safe and is only used for the 1-2 times a year i waterfowl hunt. I have sense switched to a bretta 20 gauge semi-auto and absolutely love the gun. Its light and after a stock trimming it fits me perfect now. Having the third shot is always a benefit but seems I rarely ever have to shoot 3 times. I do miss from time to time having the 2 different barrels with different choke tubes. Having that full choke in for the long shot is kinda nice.
