COMPSTOCK SHOOTING TIPS & TECHNIQUES
NOTICE: Length of pull and shooting technique are more important with the CompStock than with conventional stocks. Due to the inherent “travel” of the shotgun during recoil, there is potential for painful contact between the shooter’s strong shooting hand and the face. When the shotgun is fully mounted on your shoulder in a shooting position you need at least 2” of distance between the face and the hand.
RIGHT: Must maintain at least 2" space between hand and face.
WRONG: If there is no space between hand and face,
shooter will experience contact during recoil.
“CHEEK SLAP” - Due to the significant reduction in recoil inherent in the design of this stock, you may notice "cheek slap" that was previously masked by recoil. To avoid discomfort, move your head further back on the stock. Adding length to the stock by ordering a thicker butt pad from Knoxx Industries is an effective way to eliminate discomfort.
Recommended Thumb placement when shooting the CompStock
By placing the strong hand thumb on top of the stock as shown above,
rather than over it, contact will be avoided.
To avoid contact after recoil, maintain at least two inches of distance
between cheek and strong hand thumb.
 WARNING: Due to the inherent “travel” of the shotgun during recoil, a scope without proper eye relief will come back and hit you! Be sure to allow liberal eye relief to prevent an injury and do not let anyone shoot your shotgun without checking for proper eye clearance.
NOTE: When using Knoxx Stocks in conjunction with SureFire® and similar forends, it is advisable to keep the weak hand back at least an inch from the lamp housing bulge. This will avoid the possibility of recoil impact on the fore part of the weak hand when the shotgun is fired.
