MUch to my surprise, my 1927 vintage VH 12 ga has a 3 inch drop at heel and 1 7/8 at comb.
I find that I mount the guns with more drop with my face further back and i believe that is the way the shooters years ago did it. The lower drops and faces further forward on the stock is a more recent phenomenom, particularly because of more target shooting and less bird shooting.
