I don't think you know where the gun shoots without shooting it. You can have the stock bent up if it shoots too low for you. You can have it bent down if it shoots too high for you.
I got fitted for a gun one time. The guy had to be an expert becuase he had an English accent. He had a 6' x 6' pattern plate set up. It was made from a 1/2" steel plate and he had a paint that didn't dry already mixed up. There was a hole in the center of the plate for a pointing point. He paced me back about five yards and I mounted the gun and fired. He would note the deviation of the Point of Impact from the Point of Pointing. He would then paint over that pattern and I would mount the gun and shoot. Again the deviation was noted. This was repeated a few times and he made the stock bending recommendations for that gun.
Anyway, if it shoots too low send it to a competent smith and have him bend the stock up. Should be about $200 including shipping.
Best,
Mike
