designing up added buttstock weight to add weight and to shift the balance point to app. 5" forward of the trigger. Looking at shotguns, Mr. Harry Potter (i know...) and the photo, all come in around this distance. I should note this is about 1.5" more than half the spacing between my hands on my CZ 458 Lott

But, thought to get the wizards here to chime in...
thanks

I ordered mine to be balanced on the forward action screw and with as much weight as possible between the hands so to say, and I think the gun smith got it just right.

That is pretty much where mine balances. It is a soft shooting rifle for the calibre.

Noah,
I might be interested in the 470 Woodleigh Softs if the price is right for the entire lot. Are you planning on going to the Tulsa Gunshow in November? If so, perhaps we could meet up.
