Please more on side by side gun shooting . Bought an o/u and I like it however, having hunted woods and small open fields I really like my side by sides but, never knew why. It's because I snap shoot at game. Tracking clays l can not hit a thing. Now I know why. Thank you. To be fair I have never had any formal clay shooting training either.
Haha, me too. Had some proper training but cannot make the pictures with cross eyed dominance at the range. When hunting my brain stops obviously and real live snap shots work with very high hit percentages.
Two weeks ago at the clays I had a go with a new Beretta SxS. Immediately I loaded the gun my shooting style changed to be much more relaxed. It just felt right. The next week I tried out an old Alex Martin. I never shot any worse than with my Browning. Last week I almost traded my 525 for an AyA XXV. But my head won over my heart and I stuck with a modern gun. Now this film comes along and my heart is saying “I told you to get the SxS”. Thanks Jonny
Started hunting last year with an over and under and now switched to my dads side by side made by sabatti. I loved it shot my first woodcock with it and i just does the job so much better for me. I am actually going to buy one myself probably a side by side made by fabarm! Nice video as always!
Great! I have been waiting for this. More side-by-side!
Nice video. I bought a SxS about six months ago and have used it on clay shoots. At first I could not his a barn door, but practice is changing that. I still struggle to get the targets I want to hit but am determined to carry on as I love the look and feel of my SxS. Brilliant channel keep up the good work!
John, It was refreshing to see the misses at the 6 and or 7 minuter mark. We don't hit everything all the time as the web often portrays. I love your videos and cant get enough of the side by side. I am new to the sport and I go to your videos more than any other source. Thank you for all of the information and the highly professional production. I love being the informed person in the room when people call the three arrows on the Beretta a trident. Thanks for that one in particular.
Cheers Jonny. That's ignited my confidence in my cheap, rubbish side by side. I actually took it to skeet in Bisley yesterday after watching this video. Totally impractical but felt good to get it out and fire a few with it
Nice review John. The woodland setting, the positioning of the camera, you dressed appropriately, a classy looking SxS and the occasional “miss” made for a pleasant 8 min watch. Having spent all morning grappling with a Skeet layout in the wind and rain it cheered me up.
Thankyou.
Nothing worse than windy skeet, except perhaps windy rainy skeet
This channel should be on more than 30k sub. Great vid keep them coming 👍👍👍
Another great vid Jonny and Sash - great points on the difference between s/s and o/u shooting. Shame Steve and I just missed you at Bisley that day!
‘Merking it’- lol road man
Lefty 84 haha. Wot you sayin, cuz?!
Always enjoy your videos. Howver, my suggestion is that you know your stuff so well you rush through it. Those of us on the other side of the pond need your commentary a bit slower to adjust to the accent and some terms which are not universal. Content is always good!
Love to see you do some more SXS stuff particularly Churchill xxv the antithesis of current shotgun trends, sxs with "crazy" short barrels .
Great video mate.
I like the o/u I have and it means a lot to me. I could definitely do with some lessons as I don’t hit a huge amount when I do make it to the clay ground but there really is something about hitting a clay with a gun well over a hundred years old. Especially if the person before you has missed the stand with something made to measure
Enjoyed this a lot. SxS are great fun to shoot in woodlands for the very reason that you go for your bird instinctively. Flights at dawn/dusk are another place to let the SxS work in your favour. It takes all sorts to make a world, thank goodness for differences!
All a good excuse to own more guns
I am having my side by side multichoked for this roost shooting. One trigger for full choke and another on quarter - let it's features work to your advantage in an unpredictable situation...
Just bought my first sxs, a AYA #4 not shot it yet but it’s a lovely thing to just hold.
I've had more than a few shots, that have surprised me and amazed me, with my side by side. Its as if the gun knew what it was doing and just got on with it. Maybe it is that instinctive shooting that you describe
Best birds I have shot are with a sxs, and every time I know it was nothing to do with me. Wonderful things.
Beautiful video
Like the new introduction.
5:26 the pain in his face, really nice vid btw!
My first gun was a Baikal o/u and I traded it in and bought my AYA yeoman after about 2 years. I've since got o/u's as well but that yeoman I don't think I will ever part with, it just fits me too well
Such a beautiful side by side. Can you tell us the make/model of that particular one? It would be nice if that information was mentioned in every video where you shoot. As you will often use a different gun for each video. Cheers!
Love Bisley great shooting.
80 pct of the time wether i'm shooting my OUs or SxSs I look and mount to the front of the clay. Sometimes of fast outgoing targets I have to swing thru to get a feel for the pace of the clay.
Mint!
Good job
What shooting ground is this? Thanks. I’m looking at getting a SxS as my first gun, I’m much more of a rifle shooter so we see.
Jonny, what s brand and caliber your shotgun in this movie?
This is a Gunmark Silver Sabel in 12b
Are you at Long Siberia at Bisley looks very Familiar
This timing is perfect. I'm on the search for my first sxs. Want something old and a bit of history about it. Any good British brands that can be reccomended?
Webley 700 boxlock.
Not British, but an AYA no. 2 will not let you down from what everyone tells me. That’ll be my first s/s.
Anything more mainstream will always look after you. As already stated - webley 700 series guns are bombproof. We shall put a video together on it!
Left or right handed? Both eyes dominate?
I was thinking of getting into trap shooting. Is a side by side a good starter gun or would you go with an over under?
did you come to a decision? I was in the same boat about 3 hours ago... just before I ordered my Sauer and Sohn model 8. Maybe I played too many video games but I need me a sxs so if nothing else, I can talk down to those using clay bashing drain pipes.
@@kik1rik1 I ended up just getting a cheap pump shotgun. Maverick 88 with a 28 inch barrel. I still want a side by side. Trap shooting was fun.
@@jaydo1879 nice, looks like a solid shotty. for side by sides, i found this company: Simpson LTD. They have a lot of old school stuff. Although if you don't care for ejectors, there's plenty of modern stuff state side that's readily available. I insisted on ejectors so was veeeeerrryy limiting.
O/U or SxS? Why don't you have both and go with the one that suits the day mood?😎
Did you just swop which shoulder you mount and shoot with ?
i think the video is flipped round, look at the sign on the right of the stand
Great video! Was that the gun I borrowed for the shoot?
It was, It just looked so good I needed to have a go!
The Gun Shop yea she is a pretty gun, too bad this video didn’t come out before the shoot, makes sense now that with my SbyS I do hit targets that surprise me, or when someone yells “Kill it!!!” behind you🤗
Did you switch to left handed @7:50 or is the video flipped ?
I believe it's flipped, though I didn't notice his shooting but I saw a sign with lettering reversed lol
Flipped!
How come, @@sasha.novakovic ? Did the composition look better or did you want us to think that Mr. Carter is ambidextrous :D
Weak side shooting video too follow...
What was the gun?
What is a good afordable side by side if you look online it all starts at £10000 could you make a buying guide to side by side?
Cz bobwhite line or just cz in general
Akkar Churchill in 20/76 or 12/76. Very Budget but works very well.
Which shooting ground is that?
Bisley Shooting Ground
Surely I can’t be the only one who noticed that on the last stand he started shooting left handed?
Hi Guys, what is the name of the shooting ground?
Kostas bisley
This was at Bisley Shooting Ground.
@@tgsoutdoors Thanks! i'll give it a try
@@d02w Thanks dj
please more on s x s shooting, hard to find anybody who can explain how to shoot properly. Thanks for the video
We have plans!
Nice video. Where has Karina gone from you videos, & more importantly did you ever finish her gun?
Karina has gone back to University, unfortunately!
Don’t you just hate an automatic safety? When I move from a target gun to a field gun I’m forever forgetting it’s on.
Side by sides are no use, everyone knows that. Thats why Lord Walsingham managed to kill nearly 1,100 grouse in one day with them. I have a two side by sides as my only shotguns, and its fun to burst the bubble of the guys who tog out with the latest blaser or beretta and all the gear, by matching or beating them with a 120 year old side by side. If a gun fits you, it doesn't matter which way around the barrels are.
100% - they just require a little more style than an over and under!
You make a point that I've commented on several times: Your old double is a joy for you to shoot because, as you state, the gun fits you well. That's mostly due to more drop at the comb and heel than is found in contemporary guns. Stocks are too straight these days.
Why are almost all side by side videos from the UK? Is this all you guys are allowed or something?
We are allowed a lot more than SxS’s however we still have a huge subculture of shooters who use and enjoy them
Under over is better
I love Side by sides. Guess what? All you people who only use modern guns just because that is all you know, you will regret refusing to learn side by sides considering they are the only guns that will be there right before and after we are gone. Learn it now!
love using my side by side Cogswell & Harrison "Huntic" sidelock full and full D.T.L. and doing well against the modern O/ U trap guns.
You may have had better results had you worn your spectacles.
real men shot s/s
Really weird watching a gun video from an English person who's not American lol
I'm a native English speaker..damn you talk fast..with whatever accent you have it makes it very difficult for some of us to follow you. I have to keep rolling vid back and replaying. And I've lived and/or worked down under, USA and UK. Perhaps a bit slower and the accent would make no difference.
