For storage, be it short or long term, after a thorough cleaning I reassemble the shotgun (SxS), insert snap caps into the chambers and pull the triggers. Then I remove the forend and take off the barrels (removing the snap caps) then putting the shotgun into it's fitted case. Am I doing this properly?? Thank you all for your opinions and advice.

I never drop the hammers and then disassemble. If the gun has the internal hammers in the fired position you run the risk of bending the cocking rods when you reassemble. In addition if the gun has ejectors you can screw up the timing.
