Straight stock or a very open pistol grip (as in Brit double rifles or guns) are my preference for any offhand shooting or hunting, especially with double triggers on shotguns or double rifles. I have straight grips on two 1870’s vintage single shot .450’s

A very tight curl pistol grip is to my eye “ugly” as well as asking to get the knuckle on your 2nd finger whacked……work well for small calibre bench rest or position shooting.

Just my 2¢
