What reading level is The American Shotgun book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

A drop of I20 THE AMERICAN SHOTGUN 1^4 inches at comb calls for a 2 inch drop at heel; one of I ^ — 2^4; i >4 — 2>/> ; i^ — 2^; 1 f^ — 2^4; I J^^ — 3 inches. Of course, individual tastes and conformation will vary these dimensions. Live pigeon shots have used guns straighter than any of those given. The clay bird men find it advisable to adopt the straighter of the measurements, the up- land shooters the... medium, and the "one-eyed" per- former the crooketi ones.
The Monte Carlo Comb The Monte Carlo stock, which should be termed the Monte Carlo comb, is shown in the illustration.
The Monte Carlo comb This comb runs straight back, every part of it having a like drop from the level of the barrels in place of sloping to the butt as usual. The object of this is to have the line of sight the same whether the cheek is placed close up to the grip or farther back.
Theoretically this sort of comb is right, but in prac- tice I have not found it to improve one's shooting materially, for the reason that a practiced shot will invariably place his cheek to one spot and the elevation of the comb elsewhere cannot matter greatly.
