Default RE: Lefty's hunting with right handed bolt actions?

As a kid, istarted out with RH bolt guns, but when i got more interested in hunting DG (brown bears) on a regular basis, i figured there HAD to be a better way...

I bought a new LH 700 Rem. chambered in 7mm Rem. Mag.. And then 45 boxes of ammo from a guy that had loaded them too hot, for 2 bucks a box. I pulled all the bullets, lowered the load, and put them back together... By the time the last round was fired, i was hooked, and it was easy tosee how much those RH guns were handicapping me!

I hunt with all LH guns today... (except when i take an old one out for nostalgia)
