Default GUN FIT CONTINUED

It would seem that, if the shooter knows the 1/4 or less steradian of the sky where the bird will appear, then the gun can align the shooter for the shot. If the target is in an unknown steradian or more of the sky, the shooter must first find the bird and then align the gun to it.
It has been my experience that the big field is best searched and the target hit, with this combination;
Long barrel (30 in plus)
Splinter Fore end, with index finger between the barrels.
Pistol grip to allow the trigger finger to be parallel with the barrel during mount
A monte carlo comb that prevents a mount that places the breech end of the rib above the eye.
Sufficient drop at heel to allow the head to remain erect.

Best Austin
