I've got both. A single shot Browning and a right-hand bolt. With the cartridges in a sleave on the butt stock, I can reload the single shot faster and with less movement than I can south-paw cycle the bolt. Having said that, I like, and amcomfortable with both rifles.I grew up south-paw cycling right-handed bolts, so I'm used to it. They both are accurate and there are very few times whenreloading needs to be done quickly. My primary criteria is how accurate the rifle is, not how fast I can miss with it. The idea is to hit the target the first time.
