Righties with LBLPRE....ANY FEEDBACK?

zfastmalibu said:
OP, I have a left handed friend who uses RB, RP actions. He likes it very much, I have watched him shoot and I promise you it is considerably slower.

The only way this could be the case is if he has just one hand. In a typical righty setup, the user's left hand is doing nothing but possibly squeezing the bag. (Hopefully the "bag" on the bench...)

So the right hand must load, work the bolt, pull the rifle into place, and squeeze the trigger.

In a lefty setup used by a righty, the left hand would load and work the bolt, while the right hand did the other tasks. Even the bionic man would be faster using two hands, despite one of them being bionic (if I remember that dumb show correctly). ;)

I had a friend ask me what I was going to do with my right hand also...so many things come to mind........................(lol)
 
I am right handed and shot 2 years with a left bolt, left eject, left load with a 6x47 light gun at Williamsport. It is faster, and quite easy to get used to. it is best to use a thumb hole stock to keep the bolt from laying open the top of your thumb.
