Description

Easily the most flexible big bore system on the market, the Double Shot delivers a decisive one-two punch to medium and large game with any combination of .50 caliber ammo, shotshells, and the Air Venturi Air Bolt.

The Double Shot uses a patent-pending air distributor that allows you to seamlessly perform a quick follow up shot in less than two seconds through the use of a barrel selector dial.  No more bringing the action to a standstill to reload!  Simply load both barrels, rack back the bolt, fire your shot, twist the barrel selector dial, rack the bolt, and fire again.  To sight in on your target, use the traditional shotgun style bead sight, or purchase the Air Venturi 11mm Dovetail rail for mounting the optic of your choice.

This innovative PCP uses a 244cc cylinder, filled to 3000 psi, that provides 5 full-powered shots per fill.  This high pressure translates to incredible velocities with up to 1,130 fps with shotshells.  The options don’t stop there however, as the Double Shot can sling .50 caliber big bore ammo and the revolutionary Air Venturi Air Bolt—an arrow-slinging system that can put 170 FPE on target. Each Double Shot features the trademarked etched actions and finely grained hardwood stocks you’ve come to expect from a brand that pays homage to the golden age of the hunt.

Put simply, the Seneca Double Shot is the most versatile big bore PCP shotgun on the market today that doubles down on big bore power. If you want a PCP shotgun that can sling .50 caliber rounds downrange one shot after the next, grab the Double Shot and track your game—the trail awaits.

Check out these features below:

Mount up optics with the Air Venturi 11mm Scope Rail (sold separately).

SHOTGUN: Choose the shotgun option and enjoy velocities of 1,130 feet per second with either No. 6 or No. 8 filled shot shells. With consistent spreads of 12" at 20 yards.

RIFLE: UNSCREW THE CHOKES BEFORE USING LEAD BULLETS. Hunting for larger game? With .50 caliber slugs the Double Shot offers speeds of 600 fps and fpe exceeding 140. That's more than enough power to take medium game with a well-placed shot.

BOLT-SLINGER:  UNSCREW THE CHOKES BEFORE USING AIR BOLTS. Arm your Double Shot with Air Venturi Air Bolts to turn your air shotgun into a hard-hitting arrow launcher!  Now more speargun than airgun, be careful not to "Robin Hood" or split bolts already on the target --they are that accurate!  Capable of speeds up to 425 FPS and 170 FPE, Air Bolts are a fusion of innovative design and incredible knockdown power.

It's a beast of a airgun. I haven't really hunted with it yet, but I've had fun blasting stuff around my house. I'm only going with four stars because you always have room to improve anything. I am very happy with this air gun, so far. it's definitely a must have for any PCP fan.

It is very loud, as my first PCP maybe that's normal. but it came to be a surprise I wasn't expecting. I'd like to see sling mounts installed from factory. A better way to grab the loading port covers would be nice, but I'm not sure what could really be done there. It's heavy but most double barrels are.

I want to set straight the guy who says the chokes lossen up after a few shots. The Manuel states slugs are not to be shot thru the chokes, they need to be removed first. I bought an extra set and drilled them out. So I have something protecting the threads and end of my barrels. and of course for cosmetic appeal

I like that you can shoot slugs, shot, and airbolts. The slugs are my favorite it's cool that you can have them in a double barrel.

Do a vertical double barrel air shotgun

The gun has plenty of power to hunt deer and possibly bear with the correct ammo. Wish I could hunt with airbolts, but their not legal in my state

The extra cost oh having the scope mounted and sighted was not worth anything since the rail screws were not tightened and the scope moves. The gun is a lot louder than expected so it is of less value for hunting than hoped. Additionally, the chokes loosen after several shots using slugs. I have only shot a few of the 8shot shells and the pattern is so vast that any distance greater than a very few yards the shot would be unable to bring down even a small bird. All in all - Very disappointed. But the slugs are even worse! See that review.

Dont waste money on a scope for this gun. It has no accuracy beyond about 15 or 20 yards. Thats well within the range of the onboard sights.

Joe May 31, 2023

Sometimes you meet a unique individual who will pay another person to mount a scope on a choked shotgun to shoot slugs. But, it's certainly not very often.

Richard Feb 11, 2023

Chokes are to be removed BEFORE shooting slugs or round balls. Its also not a moderated gun so it will be loud. Accuracy? It a smoothbore, so its gonna be limited just as in a smoothbore firearm.

Looks awesome. it has a lot of power. you have 2 shots without having to reload. You have a lot of options of different ammo to choose from. I haven't bought the air bolts yet but I will soon. its not that bad filling it with the hand pump.it just feels good in your hands.

Really i haven't found anything to change yet.

This is my first air gun. i love it

I know some say "why an Airgun shotgun?". You really have to try this to understand why. I love this gun - have bought some blank shot casings and filled them with .22 cal lead roundball and .177 lead roundball shot; this works similarly like buckshot, and very well. The .22 cal shot blasts right through pine boards - quite deadly.

Faster barrel changeover but it is still very good.

Looks great. I haven't shot it much yet, but I think it will be a great addition to my collection.

It should have included some thread protection for when one uses slugs or air bolts.

I purchased a couple Seneca Wing Shot/Double Shot Barrel 12.2mm Chokes which I drilled out the ends out to 9/16" and screw onto the barrels of the Double Shot Gun when shooting slugs or air bolts to keep the threads from getting bunged up. Works pretty good.

NSA makes really good, precise slugs for my Dragon. I can hit 6 inch bulls eyes out to175 yrd. Maybe loopy but very predictable

Gerald Dec 11, 2020

Take the screw choke idea a step ahead and create rifled screw in tubes. FX has had fantastic success with this same principle with their Smooth Twist Rifling It should not be hard to apply the same principala to the double shot, 50.cal.sabot and .45 cal. ballistically superior slug or perhaps a newly designed .50 cal hybrid designed load. My first choice would be the saboted system. IMO it could be done Seneca People. Jerry Kmack, Wisconsin Air Gunner

As an avid shotgunner in the past this gun has quickly become one of my favorites and a valuable part of my airgun arsenal. Although #6 and # 8 shot do their intended job well, i bought some empty shotshells and filled a box of them with Gamo .22 cal lead round ball ammo and another box with Gamo .177 lead roundball ammo. Loading .22 cal round balls in the empty shells has a similar effect as buckshot and easily completely blasts through pine boards, - quite deadly, 50 cal 185 gr. slugs easily perforate 2+ inches of pine board and still keep going. It is not as strong as an Airforce Texan (which i also shoot in my basement with a suitable backstop!!!) but nonetheless deadly. It may not be 'back yard friendly' but i have no problem in my basement using shot or slugs against suitable targets. The gun is loud and i love its power. Some say "why an air shotgun"! Try it and you will know why.

Perhaps an easier way to change to the other barrel, but it still works quite well.

Good knowledge.Ive a tuned Dragon (awesome) took 3 deer w/ it and was wondering about the double

Mustafa May 21, 2020

the barrel switch is my concern, just like the Beaman over and under air rifle, it's never that accurate, no matter what you do to it. And this is just another version of the over and under rifle. It's a good concept, but until they work out all the quirks, it's just not worth the money. You will never be able to shoot both barrels at the same time, you won't be able to switch barrels any faster than someone could just load another slug into a regular rifle, so no thank you, not until you get it right. I already have the Senaca Dragon Claw .50 cal. with the three barrels, but the second barrel is for air, and the power of that rifle is really great. It shoots airbolts too, and I just bought the mighty Texan .50 cal.C-F, which is now the most powerful commercially produced air rifle, and is more powerful than the Umarex Hammer built better,and comes with AirForce life time warranty. I also have their Yexan .457 cal. and it was the most powerful. So I'll stick to what's proven.
