Thanks for your comments.
This will be the first hunt when I carry solid and soft nose at the same time, for Ellie it was two solid and on other occasions two soft.
My reasoning for a solid in the right barrel was that in the event of a sudden confrontation, I would be shooting straight down his nose or in to his chest so a solid would be preferred and when faced with a quick shot my instinct (read panic!) would take over and I would be firing the front trigger. I think solids would be preferred on most shots unless faced with a broadside shot with other animals beyond him, this would be a deliberate shot so hopefully I would have time to select the correct barrel.

My main point is that one should be able to select either barrel at choice, with no fear of doubling. I will discuss how I load with my PH before the hunt starts, all I have to remember is which barrel I load with which rd. This is going to be very interesting and different for me.
