Some nice O/U shotguns: http://www.purdey.com/guns-rifles/over-under-guns/

So this is just a shotgun designed to put more pellets in a given area? Just trying to understand the reasons for the double barrel? I can understand side by side shotguns for self defense. But always equated a O/U Shotgun was for hunting. Didn't know they were set so most pellets were at 40 yds...

Just trying to understand why the type was developed...
