1.All people shoot better with a properly fitted gun. A talented few can shoot well with almost anything but they will shoot even better with a fitted gun.
2.You have to establish a proper & consistent gun mount & shooting style before your ideal dimensions can be determined.
3.Select an instructor or fitter that teaches the shooting style you want to use.
4.Off the rack guns may or may not be adaptable to your ideal dimensions as there are limitations in adjusting drop, cast & L.O.P. & balance is a consideration also which has limitations in how much you can change it on an existing gun.
5.I agree that L.O.P. is the least important dimension as you can compensate somewhat by adjusting the forward hand position. that said, once you have established a proper gun mount you will most likely shoot better with a longer length of pull than you ever thought you needed.
6. Read everything Mike Yardley, Chris Batha, Robert Churchill & others have written about the subject of gunfitting & the gunmount.
