Don't forget you must have it reproofed before you sell it.OK, so now I have fitted a £1 coin on the rib of my Beretta. Do I need to notify my Insurance Company, as I have just doubled the gun's value ???
Too much bead for me, would remove that straight away!Strangely, way too much rib for me. If you moved that coin back to the top lever, that's about right for me.
All this "floating" the clay business must drive you all mad trying to remember how much to "float" at various distances.
If the bead is on the line the clay will take, it will break (if I get the lead right!). :biggrin:
+1 my left eye takes over if stock is to low . i need adj.comb on berettas all to low for meI would always go for to high rather than to low. To high and you still stand a good chance hitting the clay, to low and having your left eye take over means no chance of hitting the clay.
Or right eye take over if your one of those weird left handed people.
I agree with you on this, my USA spec DT 10 adjustable comb is only raised a little in relation to the stock. The equivalent UK DT10 has to be adjusted to the maximum to give the same comb to rib height and doesn’t feel nice to shoot when set up like this.A small but significant point about adjustable combs is that they're not going to turn a Sporter into a Trap gun and vice versa. There is a limit to how much you can raise a typically low Sporter's comb without it feeling rather awkward when mounted and being shot.
This is because the butt which is in contact with your shoulder remains in the same place, there is no substitute in having the whole set up raised to the height you're happy with hence why some prefer using Trap stocks rather than Sporters that have had the comb merely raised.
The main advantage of an adjustable comb for me at least, is getting the sight picture fine tuned and any minor cast alignments dialled out, hence why I go for the adjustable option even when ordering the right stock to begin with.
They can also prove very handy in rectifying undesirable recoil characteristics in terms of cheek pressure or even slap.
