HI,
I wonder if anybody has any experience of the guns on the market with high combs and ribs for sporting shooting.
Like the Caesar Geurini Summit Impact, or the Fabarm STL, or even the Blaser Supersport
I had been shooting a 687 for a number of years, and had started getting headaches after shooting (got the same with air rifle), and after a bit of advise, and trying guns out, swapped to a B725 which seemed to fit a bit better. The headaches are caused by stress/tension in my neck. I solved the problem when shooting air rifles by fitting an adjustable butt plate, and comb. I am ok with the B725 for a round of 50 clays, but things start to hurt when I get to 100. The headaches the next day can be quite severe.
I was wondering if anybody else has had similar problems, and overcome them with a more head up shooting position offered by thee type of guns.
I have had a couple lessons, and was told there is not too much wrong with my mount. (I do occasionally find my right eye shifting over to the RHS of the rib though) Was also considering a gun fitting session, but not sure if the alterations of the existing stock could be so dramatic. I do have a longish neck...
Any thoughts or opinions/help are appreciated...
Rich
