Larry, where a bullet from a rifle and the shot from a shotgun hit can both be adjusted. A rifle or pistol point of impact is adjusted by moving the real sight. A shotgun is adjusted by moving the stock fit.
A shotgun can be "made to fit your specific measurements" which can be found using a "try gun" by making a stock or if the gun in question is close to what you need, the stock can be bent to fit. Bending has restrictions; for instance bending up or down may be limited buy the metal of the frame.
Things that can be changed are the amount of stock alignment to the right or left of center line drawn from the barrel (cast on/off), amount of drop at the heel and the angle of the toe of the stock.
When all fits correctly, everything just feels right; your head lays along the stock naturally and the eye just naturally lines up with the sight picture. The arm and hand are comfortable at the trigger and the heel & toe fit tight and natural at the arm pit.
When it works it's like pointing your finger and knowing that you are on target.
Not easy to explain in a simple message. There are books written on this topic.
