To shoot a shotgun well there are two basic potential problems that have to solved. One is length of pull and the other is where does the gun shoot relative to where you look.
The length of pull is important because a poor fit will lead to all sorts of recoil problems. Such as lifting your head and flinching when you pull the trigger. If you've shot lots of heavy rifles over the years this could be a problem.
Pattern the gun!! It may not shoot where you look. A host of stock problems may be the culprit. Finally go to a gun club and shoot some clays. It will help with gun handeling, familiarity and help you read target speed and distance.
If you are able find a local pro shooter, take some lessons. It is always the shortest route to solving many problems.
