Was reading a thread below about receiver recontouring and subj. came up @ LH shooters and quick reloading. One LH poster stated he shot from bench, mostly, so no problem. How about off-hand shooting? Am a lefty, lookin' to get first #1 for hunting. Is it something that should cause me to reconsider? Anyone here with some enlightenment? Thanks. PS: I really want one (a #1)! | ||

As best I can tell the #1 seems to be about as ambidextrous as you'll find any rifle.  .22 LR Ruger M77/22 30-06 Ruger M77/MkII .375 H&H Ruger RSM | |||

The No1 has a lower right hand side wall which would prefer right hand shooters but in practice I have had no problem for quick reloads ,the only true ambidextrous rifle is the Browning 1885. I am a Lefty and use a Ruger No1 in .405Win and can reload just as quick as the Browning 1885 RLI | |||

I'm a lefty and have been shooting No 1s for a long time. 458 is right, you won't find a non-dedicated left hand gun that is more ambidextrous than the No 1. The flanged cartridges do tend to help in reloading, but I imagine that is the same for shooters not of their right mind.  Good Luck Mike ______________________ Guns are like parachutes.
