I took my new-to-me Fair Iside out dove hunting and went six for six with it. I have never shot that well on doves before! It is the Iside EM with 30" barrels, 15" LOP and I had the cylinder and Improved modified choke tubes installed but I didn't shoot the left barrel.
It seems barrel heavy to me but it only weighs 6lbs 2oz but maybe that is why I was swinging it well.
I'm looking forward to pheasant hunting this fall with this shotgun. |

My 30” Basic Iside shoots very well for me, and I think those long barrels put it over the top. I just sent the wood out to UncleDanFan for a visit.
Is yours stocked high? Mine ‘was’ high and shooting about 90/10.
Nice shooting! |

I reshaped the comb on mine and added some cast. The checkering is also getting changed. Woohoo! |

You added some cast by reshaping the comb, i.e. removing wood? |

Wow, 6 for 6 is awesome! I'm still toying with the idea of getting one. Just bought a house, so may have to wait until next year.... |
