I don’t know.. I read a story where a side-by-side shotgun had always shot way to low and the young owner complained of this to an old-time gunsmith. The old timer took the gun, sat on a stump and laid it across his spread apart knees and thumped it a couple of times then said “Try it now.” And the pattern had come up but not quite enough. A repeat performance by the old-timer brought the pattern right where it should be… Keeping in mind that this is a story from within the pages of a sporting book.

Maybe yes - Maybe no…
