Left Handed shooters club!

30 year old Mark V 300WM left-hand. Had the barrel replaced and the bluing and stock redone about 5 or 6 years ago.

My wife, grandma of nine, shoots a 375 Ruger in a Ruger Alaskan 20" stainless with laminate, shortened stock. The picture below was taken just after firing. The Nikon Inline has 5" eye-relief which helps to keep the scope and eyebrows far apart. Proper holding is essential, of course. It is a nice small package for her African rifle.

Also a lefty making use of right handed rifles and I've never picked up a left handed rifle, we grew up with right handed rifles and now it's muscle memory, I'd have to practice allot before I take a left handed rifle to the bush...
 
My good friends, real lefties can switch hands and gain a stroke! while I shoot left handed, I
-Write right handed
-Throw Left handed
-Kick right footed
-Shoot a bow right or left handed
-Golf and or Cricket (bat/swing/stroke) left or right handed.
-Play pool right handed.
-Kite goofy footed.
;-) a mixed bag I’d say!
:E Hmmm:ok so you can think of one other with your affliction.........:E Head Scratch:...........shouldnt take long to check this thread out in the future .........:A Stirring: :E Devious: :K Moon:..................................ahhh revenge is sweet :E Big Grin:
 
Winchester 70 Classic, several Remington 700’s, a Borden, a Tikka, a Zermatt Bighorn Origin, a couple Ruger’s, and a Savage. Please consider that as my application to the club. [emoji1]
 
Glad to know I’m not alone.

I’m right handed, right eye dominant, but do many things left handed and footed…

Shooting rifles and shotguns are one of them. I shoot pool left handed… Rode a skateboard goofy footed…
I shoot pistols right hand.

I am sure glad someone decided to do a Left Handed Rifle forum. Does anyone know of someone that has a LH Dakota 300 Cal for sale?
 
My lefties:
Texas Magnum In 7x61S&H
Ruger Alaskan in 375 RSM
Looking for more at "reasonable" prices.
 
My left handed rifles are a Remington 700 in .270 Win., Browning XBolt in .300 Win Mag and I just was able to purchase a Winchester M70 Safari Classic .375 H&H with the Pre64 action. I am getting the optics delivered soon for the .375 and am looking forward to getting it dialed in. P
 
My grandfather taught me to shoot both eyes open, so I always have and am definitely left handed!

For years I shot right handed bolts and used my right hand brought back to reload. I know Jaco and I have discussed this. But there is nothing like the left hand bolt oncertainly you shoot one.

Now I need a left hand light rifle. I do think the next one is going to be T3 lite, or perhaps a Browning X-Bolt. I haven't quite decided. T3 is slightly lighter, but I'm not a great big fan of the stainless or the plastic..... If I was going to hunt in Alaska all the time that would be one thing, but I'm not.
I have 2 LH X-bolts, a 300 Win Mag Medallion and a 270 Hunter. Love them both, and I've shot a 1 1/8 inch group at 200 yards with the 300 and over the counter ammo.
I also have a 375 H&H A-bolt.

Right handed, but knew about eye dominance when I started shooting about 10 y.o. so I never learned to shoot right handed. Because of this I usually shoot pumps, break action, or lever actions

I read an older thread that mentioned you having some 9.3x64 brass. Do you still have some? I am looking for 100 pcs, maybe 200.
