Beretta Stock Height

[Dickyboy]

We are all different for sure but there not a man born of his own mother who fit those numbers

Well Ben I was AAA in sporting cpsa , so it works for me and I got there with an ultra xs that cost me £600 , and has a 60mm drop at heel

Unfortunately that’s what people measure the success on. They’re are lots of AAA that don’t deserve it but pick the right shoots. I got around 30/40 guns a week make roughy 8-12 custom stocks a month and those figures wouldn’t work for anyone. Could u adapt to it in certain scenarios of course would it make u the best version of yourself no.

If I wear shoes that don’t fit me it doesn’t mean I can’t walk it just means it’s uncomfortable. But I’ll reach my destination all the same

Gun fitting is the same we can manipulate bad numbers like you claim you did but it doesn’t make it correct

Well it’s correct for me , why do you feel the need to put everyone down because they don’t fit what you say , wow you are condescending

It’s not condescending it’s educational. You maybe making it fit into a degree but the perfect fit those numbers will be miles out

I asked above to be sure but I think Ben's point is more to do with the difference between the two comb measurements (drop at comb & heel) and not so much the drop overall. As I understand it combs are getting more parallel so he might be 'comfortable' with 60mm at the heel but that's caused you to work around a steep comb which something more monte carlo-ish - I think it's called drop at monte - would deal with. I might be wrong however.

As I said above I like the 35/50 Beretta measurements but I have stacked the back up a little. There's still 10mm overall drop which works for me - it might not be right but it works for me. My face might sit over a third of the stock (max to min) so there no much change in practise.

Morning

When u shoot parallel, above for a driven and below for a shot below the feet your gun will have a serous change in POI due to the 10mm of drop no one can hold the same head to stock relationship in all 3 positions hence the drop in most guns nowadays is outdated

This is intriguing.

I know gun fit is quite a topic.

I also shim my semi auto all the way down, and cast all the way to the right, and my eye sits perfectly down the rib.

I don't know what the actual measurement is, but it feels much better than the fit of my 694 sporter.

It's the bit that's hard to work out. I assume we need some drop because the angle of our head changes but how much . . . I also am mindful that we seem to shoot more sporting below our feet so the issue is not just pushing the back of the stock up but also dropping the front to match the measurement at the face ???
