Consider an aftermarket wood stock...particularly a Trap Stock. When properly fitted will allow you to aim with excellent alignment of sight and eye placement. Particularly in low-light conditions. You should be able to shoulder stock with eyes closed and open eyes to exactly where you wanted to point.

Other stocks can be fitted with an add-on piece of wood (oak, etc.), glued in place and then hand fitted by a good gunsmith. Doesn't necessarily look great, but does increase shooting accuracy (Trap, Skeet, Sporting Clays, HD).
