Which Limbsaver pad fit the Yildiz 20?
I think I went to limbsaver website to figure out which one.

The one Academy sells for the Yildiz. You can get the Limbsaver part number off of the listing on Academy's website, if you wish to purchase elsewhere.

Heckler & Koch/Fabarm with a 580 in both barrels.  I shoot Federal TSS 8/10s in my long barrel (pattern is insane) and whatever old copper plated lead I have laying around in my short barrel.

I also went Stevens 555 in 20ga dipped with carlson choke and a slip on leather recoil pad which is awesome from laying jay leather in Dugsbur VA and a leather slip over sling from him as well!

Very cool! Kicking around the idea of doing something similar in the 410 flavor.

If I could find a fair deal on a double trigger O/U 20, I would pull the trigger today.  Literally and figuratively.  I just want a double trigger.
the double trigger is what drew me to the CZ Bobwhite all terrain SxS. I'm running SumToy .562 in the left barrel and a .575 in the right.
The barrel is at SumToy's now getting set up with a FF3 red dot. 
Good things come to those who wait

You fellas got me thinking about this hard now. How much POI change are you seeing from top barrel to bottom barrel?  What is the preferred set up in a OU?  Long range barrel on top short range bottom? 
I don’t mind shooting TSS in close but it would be nice to have an open choke option for those ones that in too tight.

I don’t see much at all but my setup is probably a little different than most. I shoot tss out of top barrel for longer range and use a lead pheasant load in bottom for close

Not very much at all. I tried chads set up with the far barrel on top and close on the bottom but I noticed less poi when I switched it to my far barrel being on bottom and close on top. With the far barrel being on bottom, I made my zero right where the waddles start (mid neck). With that zero (mid neck), at 20yards with my top barrel it takes its head off.

Yesterday I did some "shucking and jivivg" also known as trading and I wound up with a CZ Sharptail 20 gauge SxS, already patterned it at 35 with factory full and Improved Modified choke.  I only shot the Federal 8s and 10s. It shot outstanding!!! I was definitely surprised.

Have a good one, Bo
