The comb posts can then be removed to adjust for the point at which the comb will impact. After this is done, slide the posts in the desired direction for the point of impact. Take another shot to verify the new point. You may need to adjust the comb again depending on the results. However, you can easily change the point of impact of your rifle by using the tips listed below.
Drop at comb is the vertical distance from the top of the comb to a straight line along the center of the rib
A rifle should be aimed at a target using a full choke. This constricts the bore and gives the best range. This configuration is known by the name fusil. Fusils have a high-carbon steel plate called a frizzen that can be hinged forward and backward for firing and priming.
Wood comb
A comb that is adjustable can be a great choice if your goal is to make small changes to your setup. These combs are designed to give you the same sight picture as a fixed comb but are flexible enough to adjust from 50/50 to 8/20, based on your point of impact. This hardware can be purchased at most gunsmith stores. Here are some methods to adjust the comb.
Adjustable hair comb
An adjustable hair comb can be an option to custom-made gun stocks. They can be installed for around $300-400 and allow you adjust the point to impact with minimal effort. The comb attaches to a set posts and can be adjusted by washers. You can adjust the comb up to 15 inches with a pack of 20 washers. Place the test pattern four inches below your target line, and three inches to your right. When you reach the center, raise the combpost with three washers. Move it left about an eighth inch.
Adjustable buttplates
For most firearms, you can adjust the point or impact (POI), by moving the height of the comb and/or raising the front beads. The height of wood stocks can be adjusted by sanding. A seasoned gunsmith can rehead and bend the barrel and wood stocks. Double-barreled guns can require relaying and/or resoldering. An experienced gunsmith will be able to do this. However, an adjustable buttplate will help you change the angle of your head.
Adjustable buttplates and pivots
Adjust the Universal Bar to the point of impact using the pivots. End plays must be free. The U-Bar pivot lock nuts must be tightened on the Universal Bar. The Arm should be in the first or the second position on the adjusting post of the rear frame crossbar. The adjustingplate post must not be bent upward. The Universal Bar pivot screw can be adjusted by loosening its locknut.
