I think drop at face which is defined by both drop at comb and drop at heel may be the most important dimension. Too much drop is terrible for me. I can shoot from the hip about as well as shouldering the gun if the gun has excessive drop. Also, its been explained to me (I think Daryl Halquist might have mentioned this) that cast equates somewhat to drop. Although I dont like too much drop, I do like some mild-mod cast. Having said all this, I had a gun once with 3 drop at heel, but a very high comb. I shot that gun fairly well, but it always felt very odd for me. I think the high comb was why the gun was almost ok for me, but Im not 100% sure. I like guns to shoot a little high. 50:50 isnt that great for me.
