Just to be clear,
I patterned the gun and it shoots to point of aim.
If I screw my head way down on the stock, I can flatten out the rib and lower my point of aim.

Due to my physical configuration, I would normally shave the toe of a stock like this sidelock and adjust to allow for an abnormal amount of downpitch. problem solved for me. It's just that this gun has a checkered butt
and I don't want to alter it.
