It's a wonder there aren't quality, and well balanced bolt action shotguns out there--so the gun you use for the most shots hunting everything has the same action type. That would make it second nature, as I suppose it is also second nature for those who hunt with both shotgun and pump action rifles.I agree with whoever said previously that the English had an easy transition from double shotgun to double rifle, since both were alike. Still, I have seen some mighty fast shooting videos where European hunters were getting off quick shots at driven boar and red stags. Some of them almost had to be straight pull rifles, or I am even more impressed. Also, my Mannlicher Schoenauer rifles are extremely well-balanced for an offhand shot. At the end of the day, I will say this: I felt really claustrophobic with a bolt gun and leupold scope set at 1 1/2 power when a Zimbabwe buff was bearing down and crackling through the thick brush and I couldn't even see him. I sure wanted an open-sighted double then! Fortunately, he turned, along with his friend, who was coming along for the ride... Steve
