Brian, the gun had so much drop it was impossible for me to shoot with any success . I wanted to get it up 2in but we could not get quite that much. As I mentioned, it had been repaired before and was pretty much useless as it was. We bent it until it cracked again, repaired it where it was which if I remember correctly was about 1/4 to 3/8 less than the target I wanted, but decided that was probably as far as it would go. So far so good. But I do think that is risky and would not want to try it on a nice stock. This gun was headed for the scrap pile so I had nothing to loose. Luckily this one turned out good but I am sure it could have just as easily have finished it for good. Carvel
