Chris,

I agree. This is the one and only benefit I have ever found for a mid bead on a non-turkey shotgun. And even then, once I really have a feel for the cheek mount on a particular gun, it sits right back in the right spot on it's own.

THAT said, I'm still perplexed as to what the real purpose of a lever mounted bead would be...especially given the lever is going to move over time. As exactly zero people need to be told on this forum, no one "aims" a shotgun for any purpose other than turkey...or burglar.

Perhaps only for turkey.

Review the Parker Pages article on the "Gold Hearts" gun by Austin Hogan if you want to see some outrageous sights close to the eye. Sorry, I don't have a date reference for the issue. Thanks to Chuck for his regular juvenile post about "Murphy should order some letters." He beat the other guy to the punch. Chuck knows that I am not afraid to order a letter and some have been ordered for guns I do not own. Chuck also knows that I have shared more research information than anyone who has ever posted on this forum, and will continue to do so. And, although I am criticized for doing so, I will continue to suggest that owners of interesting Parker guns and those contemplating purchasing such guns order PGCA letters on those guns. I don't understand why Chuck objects to my suggestions. Maybe he is overworked in his position of Chief Researcher. He is certainly appreciated by those of us who purchase his services.
