I have asked this question before, and never really gotten an answer that made sense to me. I know a number of very knowlegable people who claim that Pitch is for comfort only, and has no bearing on point of impact...Michael Yardley's book seems to suggest this, and that is the only treatise on the subject I own. One person I know and respect says he just cuts his stocks off at 90 degrees to the comb.
However, I keep hearing people say that Pitch is an important factor in fit. The naysayers always drown them out, but I would like to hear from someone an explanation of how pitch is correctly determined, how it affects fit, and whether and how it affects the point of impact. I'm really only interested at this point in those who believe pitch IS an important element of fit beyond mere comfort, so if you don't think it is please bite your tongue until others have had a chance to weigh in. Anyone out there want to take a stab at this?
Thanks
