    the question is asked by a rifleman...a shotgunner already KNOWS the answer,they have done for a century if not longer,three things all tied loosely together.
    gun balance...how well gun sits between the hands (possibly why I have such distain for the hug yourself method prone?)
    gun fit.....how well a gun thrown to shoulder lines up with your eyes..the feel of the deal..the lower rings on Zastava above is classic case in point,the way my longer bodied M8 4x with large eye box did the same to same rifle.
    pointability...tied closely to the above...the rifle/shotgun/bow/bent stick you can chuck to shoulder with eyes closed,open eyes and sights are aligned with target you looked at before starting movement. absolutely criticle for good snap shooting....and that IS NOT flinging lead at movement..its poking a hole in a IDENTIFIED target you WANT to hit....
    75/15/10 black powder matters
