GUN BALANCE

[Dustem Dave]

Just a quickie if you add weight to your barrels does it slow the gun down or alternately if you had lighter barrels would it handle quicker ??

[seeker]

Roughly speaking weight to the front would be slower to get moving: stop or change direction ... 'steadier swing".

to the rear quicker to move and stop etc but easy to overdo' it ... "livelier/ whippy'

But were not talking 'pig on a shovel' differences.

[utectok]

Mostly you want the balance point between your hands roughly at the hinge piñ on a double barrelled gun and the equivalent on on semi. Well that's what I read.

if you can shoot to a good standard you can alter your swing by altering your hold position on the forend. back a bit will give a quicker swing but less control and towards the end will be more stable and steadier but can stiffen it up to much.
