[QUOTE="StumpGrinder, post: 2007099, member: 114832"] It looks like fit may be the problem, shotgunners know how important fit is to accurate shooting. A good exercise is to pick a spot on the wall, close both eyes and mount the rifle. If it fits correctly you should be looking very close to that spot when you open your eyes. This workes for open sights and scopes. If the barrel is high the stock is to short, if low it's to long. A good rule of thumb is with the recoil pad in the crook of your and hand extended towards the pistol grip, your index finger should just reach the trigger to the first joint as if you were going to fire it. People spend lots of money fine tuning the fit of a shotgun but seldom pay much attention to the fit of a rifle! [/QUOTE]
