After bending the stock how is the pitch angle preserved to its original setting? The apparent and easy way would be wedges under the pad or plate. Is there another way?
Ducks Rx is proposing a very modest 3/16" increase in the drop at heel by bending his stock. With such a small change, the risk of damage to the stock is minimal, and the change in pitch would be almost imperceptible. One could use a buttplate that was slightly tapered toward the top if the pitch had to remain precisely where it was.
Use a bit of common sense..
Asking Ed Good to use a bit of common sense is like asking a blind man to win the Olympic Gold Medal in Trap Shooting... with a BB gun.
