Munchie Posted October 13, 2013 Report Share Posted October 13, 2013 I have just bought a new Browning Maxus. I am tall and have long arms and set the Lenght of pull so that the crease at the top of my finger trigger is in line with the trigger. Then mounted the gun ensuring the butt was pressed firmly against my cheek, using a mirror. I found that I could see the Lenght along all of the rib and the bead. I changed the shim lifting the stock, mounted the gun and found that I was looking along the rib at the bead, not nearly as much of the rib visible. If I close my left eye It spot on the the bead. I have been shooting skeet, I am consistently breaking 17 but am missing crossers on 3, 4 and 5 from the low house, every time. I suppose the answer is to shoot some patterns with it, trouble is I do not have access to land to do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fenboy Posted October 13, 2013 Report Share Posted October 13, 2013 Most decent clay grounds will have a pattern plate so try there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suggest you clean the mag tube internally, clear the gas ports and soak the piston in meths overnight before giving it a good scrub also clean any carbon off the exterior of the mag tube and use just a tiny amount of thin oil. If that fails change shells Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
