I was measured at an Orvis shooting school at 14 5/8 length of pull, 1 1/2 drop at the comb, 2 3/8 drop at the heel and think that if I was measured by three different people that the measurements would be some different but very close to that. Am 6ft. with short arms have tried the slip on leather pans to add length with varied success. Seem to get along fine with 14 1/4 a shirt and vest. What throws me is the 3 inch or more drop at the heel. An't no way. Have purchased a Parker that did not fit and tried to make it work. It did not. No longer own the gun. With my shooting, I need all the help I can get and if I find a gun I love and the measurements are not close to mine. No way. It will work for someone somewhere.
