I'm not sure I agree with the "large drop at the heal". I have heard that many times and used to believe it, but I have a Lang double rifle that has so little drop it is almost impossible to shoot at 100 yds or less.


And I have an Evan's double shotgun that is also way way high. I finally bent that one and it is now quite shootable.

So, I don't really believe that the long drop is really European or British. At least not all of the time.
