Just wondered if any lefties here shoot right-handed guns and enjoy them that way or do you prefer a left-handed gun instead? I was curious because I have never shot a left-handed gun and I'm used to being able to see easily down inside the chamber when loading a round,(Bolt-action)and loading singles at the bench. It just seems more comfortable for me to shoot right-handed guns and wondered if I'm missing something. | ||

I'm a lefty but all of my bolt guns are lefties except for guns that I got for the kids and guns that I shoot for other people. If you shoot off of a bench all of the time then a right handed action is just as easy to use as a left handed action. Because you are not supporting the weight of the rifle while you cycle the action. If you are in the field, the left handed action is faster and easier for you to use. IMHO, the best/easiest rifle to use for lefties is the old Remington 788 left handed rifles, they had the bolt on the left side but the ejection port on the right side where you could see it. | |||

I have both and also find that the right hand are better at the bench. The only real problem is the gas handling set up on righty rifles. The vent hole in the reciver is on the same side as your face. | |||
