High Ribs will shoot high,The higher the rib the more LEAD You will give OVER THE TOP...

Why High Ribs are used on Automatic Ball trap..

High ribs and flat ribs shoot the same.

 

High adjustables can be altered to give a differing rib picture and move impact as said by others

 

A 25mm non adjustable high rib with just the bead in view will shoot 25 mm lower than a flat rib as the barrel muzzel is that distance lower. In the world of scatter gun accracy it has no effect.

 

A high rib is designed to give better visability and let the shooter see the target more quickly than a flat rib as it moves the main bulk of the gun away from the eye and supposodly promotes a more head up position.

 

Most of the Top ABT shots use flat ribs.

The exceptions use adjustables to make the gun shoot either higher or lower with a rib picture they are happy with.

So if your head is in more upright position,your eye will be higher,,which in turn lowers the front sighting of the gun,,Which has to be raised to blot target,Hence shoot High.

A shotgun that fits the same shoots the same - whatever the height of the rib.

 

Thanks to the wonderful world of physics, there is another rarely mentioned advantage to a high rib/high comb gun, namely less muzzle jump because the axis of the barrels is further below the line of sight and therefore nearer to a straight path to the shoulder.
