DOUBLE BARREL technique - shave time off your COWBOY ACTION stages FAST!

[@eamonia]

This reminds me of an old Paul video. Sorry, I'm not trying to detract from your channel but there were a couple things y'all both touched on and it just made me think of him. We love you, Paul.

[@12vPowerShower5gal]

I really like your channel .You’re really articulate about explaining shooting situations. Especially for cowboy action. I appreciate all the help I can get.

[@ladyt3805]

As a new old woman getting involved in CAS, this was SOoooo appreciated! Thank you

[@dustbustr91]

wow your camera angles and slow mo and editing and skill hell everything is amazing

[@nelsonstrickland8813]

You're the fastest guy I've ever seen shooting a double barrel....wow !!

[@kevinkelly6524]

You do the best CAS training videos on YT. Very well thought out, explained, and demonstrated

[@mhoosier75]

The tip on where your eye focuses when inserting shells was particularly helpful, I had been looking at the extractor and found this small change mad a big difference in hitting the reload!

[@DeadEyeCowboyActionShooting]

Awesome! Glad it helps!

Perfecting of that one gun. Incredible and priceless instruction. Top notch on the classic coach gun. Extremely well done and presented.

[@northshores7319]

I have said before that using a double barrel shotty is OK for Home Defense as long as you move, seek cover and reload while moving as it is the height of folly to stand put and fire whatever you are using continously as then you become a stationary target. You technique is invaluable. Good explanation on how to do it fast.

[@fatalfatejake]

your a badass! not gonna lie brother! your the only person I've ever seen shoot and reload a double barrel shotgun with such precision. cowboy certified

Always learning something new. Yes, I've been doing this for 20 years, but there's always room to improve. Thank you for helping me sharpen my technique!

[@don.richard8823]

Excellent timing and rythem! Thank you for sharing ! 🦾👍🏻

[@fratercontenduntocculta8161]

Coach guns to me are the ultimate practical shotgun. Nice and short in tight areas for urban operations, and powerful enough to stop any assailant in a single shot. I own a Stoeger Double Defense in 12 ga. and have been very interested lately in sharpening up my techniques as I recently discovered that there are many Cowboy Action groups down here in FL. Thanks Dead Eye!

12:38 this man reloads faster than Doom guy

[@phamily-tv]

let's see him reload just as fast but with gloves on, which is what the Slayer (doomguy) is always wearing

[@DbBoomstick]

Not sure why but i feel the video may have been sped up a little. I could be wrong though.

[@demogeymidge2997]

It isn’t, if you look at the shells getting flung out and falling, it looks natural with how fast it’s falling, and not as if they‘re unused and given wooden car weights

Thank you for some very good information - I just got into SASS, shot my first match with borrowed equipment in November, and my new Stoeger Coach Gun will be here this weekend. My biggest problem is I don't reload shotgun yet...I look forward to trying some of these techniques after my gunsmith buddy slicks up this new gun. I am never going to win a match, just in it to have fun!

[@jrdeckard3317]

Obviously you've disabled the auto safety, probably cut a coil or two off the lever-opening spring, polished the bearing surfaces and extractor, and either polished or honed the chambers. Perhaps a video on the upgrades you've done to the gun would be appropriate.

[@MrJtin69]

Agreed hahaha

[@brentv9901]

Everybody does that. That stuff goes without saying.

[@johnfretz1938]

Wow. Just came across your channel. Great content. Well produced and really informative. The sport looks like a lot of fun.

[@brucegavin7614]

This is a superb tutorial. One slight disconnect I saw: the spoken tutorial mentions the butt stock going under the armpit which put the thumb in position to open the action. The slow-motion shows the thumb starting to move the action level before the butt stock moves from the shooting position I suspect the slow-motion to be the more accurate description, as it was taken in actual motion. The thumb position will ultimately depend upon the physiology of the individual shooter. In no way does this detract at all from this excellent tutorial. Many thanks

[@DeadEyeCowboyActionShooting]

The stock definitely drops but when I'm accurate with the top lever alot of the time it opens before I start to pull back with my weakhand. When something is sticky, like I hit the top lever wrong, driving the barrels back to the shoulder help to still open the top lever and break the action. It's also hard to get across what something "feels" like at times. For me, when im shooting good, it feels like I'm really driving the shotgun into my thumb. That's the motion I want to feel so everything "times" good.

One shot one target, If you need more it's too late. People has been bird hunting with two shots for hundreds of years. If you had a musket you had only one shot. This 6-7 shots is silly. Your good at what you do and a very good instructor.

Thanks for watching! It's a Browning, straight stock, selectable barrel. Took me over a year to find one at a reasonable price!

Dead Eye I am fairly new to this sport, been doing it for a couple of years. Really enjoy it. I shoot with Judge Parker’s Marshall’s in Van Buren, Ar. I was looking at some of your videos and I thought I saw you here. Where are you located. I have a Stoeger Shotgun, I am wanting to upgrade, would you recommend a Browning or a SKB, thank you and keep the videos coming. I like your videos because you explain them in a way everyone can understand. Tom Floyd

[@DeadEyeCowboyActionShooting]

Yup, been there a couple times! Great range! Personally, I'm a Browning fan but more people probably shoot SKB's. Both will perform great when worked over properly. It'll really come down to the ergonomics for you. You'll know when you pick up the right one!

Hi Dead Eye, can You tell me which coach gun exectly do You use? Is it an Huglu version? Thanks and best regards from old Germany Christian (Ethan CAS shooter)🤠

[@roccocampanella3306]

Great tutorial

[@sambsialia]

What tips would you have for a newbie to get geared up? What is it best to avoid regarding gear? Great vid. Thanks.

[@DeadEyeCowboyActionShooting]

First recommendation is to get out to a few local matches to see what people are using. Most are very willing to tell ya all about their gear. What they like, what to avoid, and so on. I would avoid buying anything before you've been to a few shoots. I seen some show up with guns that weren't legal to shoot or was a pain to use. Let the shooters know your looking to gear up and I have no doubts they'll take care of ya!

I learned a lot in this video. Like, a real lot. 👍🏻

[@chuckbrizzee7499]

When you break the gun open, are you pushing the stock down and holding the barrel, or, are you holding the stock and pushing the barrel down with your hand, or both?

[@downhiller19]

Great video Dead Eye. Where can I find a belt that holds side by side shells like that one? Thanks.

[@DeadEyeCowboyActionShooting]

There's alot of good leather makers in our sport that make SxS belts but mine was made by Persimmon Dan. I believe his company is Murphy Leather.

[@downhiller19]

@@DeadEyeCowboyActionShooting Thank you!

[@roybertalotto6355]

Rancho Roy here....As always, great video...Thanks Deuce Stevens suggested to me once that you can not have a shotgun stock too short. One time I accidentally grabbed my wife's double with a 12" LOP and used it. I was surprised how well I handled it. Haven't cut the stock on my SG yet....Comment??

[@DeadEyeCowboyActionShooting]

I have to agree, my stock is pretty short. I experimented a few years ago cutting a little at a time and I noticed the handling got better and better. I did reach a point though where pointing would prove difficult if I went any further, stopped there and called it good.

[@abrampl]

Yours gun is really slick!

[@damianchristie288]

in a close quater defence situation might be better off reloading after one shot (if possible) and focusing more on what the threat is doing i know that circumstances might not always allow this, a lot to be said for ejectors too .

Good video. I shoot a double with exposed hammers. Would you do a vid for double with the exposed hammers.

[@MegaFlorest]

I got a double to keep on display, for home defense, and went with the CZ Hammer so I can keep it loaded, closed, but still safe. (It's anchored). Hard to see, but check out this guys method: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qn-VhnyYfaaXoKs&feature=emb_logo&ab_channel=PioneerArms

[@SlickSixguns]

Do you load your own rounds? Or do you use stock ammo

[@DeadEyeCowboyActionShooting]

Both, I pick up factory STS every so often for more hulls. I really load my own to get an STS hull with number 5 shot when I can use it.

[@ronswisher5377]

Dam that was Kool !

[@charlestex8222]

Can you comment on proper lenght of pull for this kind of shooting? (How to figure that out). I feel double barrels usually come with too long a stock for self defense or cowboy action shooting for the average man. I'm 5 7". Great video.

[@chrhadden]

i have a rossi coach gun.what do i do to get mine to open like yours?i practically need my knee to open it

[@charleslimparis2069]

During the slow motion sequence where you identified your focal point, @ approx 4:35, I was looking at the chamfer that you have on your barrels and was curious about the depth of that chamfer. It was hard to determine from a stopped video image but looks like it extends all the way into the barrel also removing the ledge that the rim of the shell usually sits on. Obviously, the chamfer is not too deep or the shells would drop in too far to fire, but I was just curious if that was the case. Thanks and keep up the good work, Dogmeat Dad

[@DeadEyeCowboyActionShooting]

Ledge is barely removed, just enough that if it was still there the rounds would it in the same spot. Getting the right angle allows this. Ledge kept on extractors for insurance, lol.

[@charleslimparis2069]

@@DeadEyeCowboyActionShooting Thanks, that is what I suspected, but hard to tell from the video. Since the chambers keep the shells properly aligned, all that is really needed is a positive stop to keep them from going in too far, which you achieve both with the chamfer and the extractor ledge. Other than polishing the chambers, and a few minor slick-ups, our shotguns are pretty much stock. I'm ready to chamfer the barrels some, but probably will just take it down until it just kisses the edge of the ledge. Maybe I am being over cautious but, in reality, in order for me to get to your level of speed, I would need to start with a fully stoked semi-auto, and even that would likely not be enough! lol We are enjoying your videos. Thanks for posting them!
