why can i not shoot a side by side ?

[.357shooter 1,180]

bought one a while back and really like it but can not get on with it.if i practice a lot with it i can shoot it better but then when i go back to my o/u i can not hit a thing.as it is an antique i really do not want to mess with it so i bought another.not learning from my mistakes i know but i wanted to try again.now before you say gun fit it comes up just right,is the right length and has been checked at the club by the chairman who does know a thing or to about gun fit.yet this thing shoots about 2 foot high.beginning to think it has to do with the straight stock and having no pistol grip.so actual fitting will be done on this one to see if it gets any better or will be moved on shortly.

I only use a side by side Winchester pigeon. Love the gun.

this fella does some good videos maybe you can pick up tip or two

Interesting video I’ve got an AYA No 4 it’s a very well balanced gun 26” barrels and to be honest I’ve never really got to grips with it I was considering selling it but I might give it another go.

Cheers.will try and be a little more subtle with it.turns out it fits perfectly.other guns are wrong and I have learnt to shoot them.
