I am 6'0 and 205 lbs. I carry my Sig P220R in a CrossBreed Supertuck at 4:30 to 5:00. It is very comfortable and disappears at that position.

As far as the "best position", that is all personal preference. Try various positions, and see what you like and where the gun conceals well.

Very, the draw took a little getting used to, but it's second nature now. I don't even have any problems drawing while sitting in the car.

I also carry in the 5:00 position, but with a palm out draw. Very comfortable, and the draw is very natural...as with all holsters and positions...practice makes or breaks it.

Stay armed...find your niche...stay safe!
