I have and do shoot both. I do agree with some of what is stated. All things being equal there is NO doubt a double is faster. But in today's world of hunting dangerous game I really feel the NEED for a double is long gone as there is typically a PH there to back you up after the first shot. Some back you up whether you want them to or not, or so I hear..

Using a double certainly has a different feel to the hunt. It lets your mind take you back a bit in time which is fun and nostalgic. When I go back I will be taking both..but do plan to use the double most of the time..
