The effect on point of impact is directly related to the angle of the butt against the shooter's shoulder. With a gun that has less pitch you will find that the toe of the butt meets resistance against the shoulder first causing the barrels to rotate upward while a gun with more pitch finds the heel of the butt meeting first resistance against the shoulder causing less upward rotation or none at all.
Larry has it right but only half right. His theory works only if all three guns have the same pitch.
