Took a 20 ga Rem Express Youth model dove hunting Saturday. Mounting the shotgun shows that I really (I mean really) had to concentrate getting my cheek pressed into the stock to properly sight down the rib. A natural mount sets the shotgun to shoot high = the rib appears about 1/8" thick (amount of visible top plane of the rib).
Any "quick" fixes to change the mounting position? Haven't taken too hard a look, but seems that a shim at the stock/receiver junction (top side) could have a positive effect by essentially making the barrel point lower.
Don't want to stick much of anything far as dollars go into this & was just wonderin' ....
Appreciate any input.
BTW, usually 'bout 70%+ on doves with my 12 - suffice it to say that when the doves are flyin', concentrating on stuffing my cheek deeper into the stock was not on my mind = I did truly suck.
