Friends:

I am working on the stock of my NID clays gun again. It has zero pitch. I got to wondering if it should be zero, and why it is so in the first place? Aesthetics? Comfort?

I stopped and re-read Bristers "Shotgunning the Art and the Science". He has little to say about pitch, so I am back where I started. Looked up pitch in Greener -he adds nothing of value. I looked also in Burrard. He says less than Greener.

So, in address to this august body - what does pitch actually DO? Is it merely a comfort issue? Or does pitch help control the point of impact?

Comments solicited.

Thanks

Regards
