Yes, this is a n00b question. I've tried some searching and it's still not clear to me. I guess what I'm really looking for is a very detailed description of a proper mount.
Questions about finding "the pocket"
- Left to right: I see two possible spots to place the butt of the stock. One is in the gap where my bicep ends. It's comfortable there, but it occurs to me that there's not a lot of flesh behind the stock. There other spot is closer in, covering the outside edge of my pectoral muscle. This feels less natural at first, but there is certainly quite more padding behind the stock.
- How high? How high should the top of stock be? Should it be completely below the top of my shoulder? This is still about shoulder pocket, but it affects how my check touchs the stock. I've got a long-ish neck and everything feels a bit more comfortbale if the top of the stock sticks up above the top of my shoulder a bit.
