Back

Viewed from the rear the shoulder has been pushed forwards and up to meet the stock, the stock is firmly pushed against the face.

  • The stock pushes firmly into the face, not the face down onto the stock.This maintains the eye/gun relationship.
     
  • As the stock comes to the face the shoulder hunches forward and up to meet the butt of the stock. This provides a quare and solid bed for the stock.
     
  • If the shoulder remains down and relaxed then recoil is unpleasant, the gun will move in the shoulder as the shot is fired and there will be a general lack of gun control
     
  • This gun mount position remains the same regardless of the shot.
