By all means, make the gun "fit" you. Find someone with experience to help and you'll make the best move ever.
I've got the opposite problem. Bought my 870 when I was 18. At age 25 I was lucky to make a friend of a gunsmith who helped me fit my stock by adding to give me a 15 1/4 length of pull and 1/4 inch cast off.
Your goal is to make the gun point where you are looking.
1. Wear your regular hunting coat when fitting the gun.
2. Gun must be properly mounted.

You won't believe how much this will improve your shooting.
Good luck.
