Dilly, nice write up on the gun. I’m curious how you figured out the best dimensions for the stock extension? That barvarian hump back seems like extending it following original lines might make the dac too low. Then again, that might be what you need. How’s the cast?

Cast is neutral. I simply matched my favourite 16ga model 12 that I shoot best out of all my guns at 14 5/8”. The hogs back didn’t affect the DAC for me. Maybe the cheek piece makes up for it. It just seemed to make the pad a bit smaller and rest down into my shoulder nicely. |

Good times there. I am wishing turkeys strutted a wee bit closer to home. Lucky man you are to take such a beautiful bird with that nice old Sauer. I used to want a gun like with a small caliber rifle barrel, like a .221 Fireball, to take the occasional stray coyote I jump while bird hunting. Fur money equals gas money! |
