I am not as strong as I once was. Finding that most shotguns are too heavy for me since my neck injury. I have been leagally blind in my right eye since birth and being righthanded I learned to shoot left. So now I am looking for a great deer rifle or slug gun that is lefty, light weight and accurate. I don't want to have to sell the farm but could manage a couple grand. So are there any left handed people out there with some suggestions for this older gal that still loves the hunt?

Left handed firearms are not easy to come by.

I live in Indiana and the regulations are as follows for rifle cartridges and handgun cartridges. So it does further limit me.
Rifles with cartridges that fire a bullet of .357-inch diameter or larger; have a minimum case length of 1.16 inches; and have a maximum case length of 1.8 inches are legal to use only during the deer firearms and special antlerless seasons. Some cartridges legal for deer hunting include the .357 Magnum, .38-.40 Winchester, .41 Magnum, .41 Special, .44 Magnum, .44 Special, .44-.40 Winchester, .45 Colt, .454 Casull, .458 SOCOM, .475 Linebaugh, .480 Ruger, .50 Action Express, .500 S&W, .460 Smith & Wesson, .450 Bushmaster, and .50 Beowulf.
Some handgun cartridges that are legal for deer hunting include .357 Magnum, .41 Magnum, .44 Magnum, .44 Special, .45 Colt, .45 Long Colt, .45 Winchester Magnum, .35 Remington and .357 Herrett.

You could try a single shot rifle ( H+R handi-rifle , cva apex ) and wouldn't be out a lot of money if you didn't like it .

Remington 700sps left-hand msp $702 in 270, 30/06, 300 Winchester. Remington 700 cdl msp $1048 in 270,30/06,7mm rem,300 ultra magnum. Remington 700 spa compact $702 in 243, 7mm/08.

Ruger makes LH rifles, but most bolt action rifles may be too heavy for you after adding the weight of a scope. If you find most shotguns to be too heavy it is going to be hard to find a L/H rifle that will suit you. Maybe a lever action rifle with iron sights or a single-shot rifle would do it, and should have good enough accuracy for hunting purposes.

Killer - you should have been around 45 years ago when only Rem, Savage and Weatherby were the only ones who made production left hand rifles. Today there are a lot to choose from. Being a lefty I've owned and do own several left hand bolt action rifles. My favorite model (currently) in my gun safe is my Tikka T3 lite in 30-06. This rifle will shoot 3 shot clover leaf groups all day long. But that is pretty common for these rifles. They guarantee 3 shots within an inch at 100 yds. And the price is definitely within your range even with a quality scope. Calibers for this model range from the 22-250 up to the 338 win mag. And you won't find a slicker action - except maybe on a Sako A7.
Some manufacturers who make left hand bolt off the top of my head:
Remington, Savage, Tikka, Ruger, Browning, and I think T/C has come out with a lefty.
As another option, you can go with a single shot like a Ruger #1 or a lever action like the Browning BLR.

savage 220 comes in lefty if you want a slug gun. My brother is real happy with his

My favorite deer rifle is a Ruger No. 1 in .243. Classic action, light weight, light recoil. Doesn't care whether I shoot it right- or left-handed.

I have to agree Savage 220f Lefty......or H&R Ultra Deluxe

Wow Thanks everyone I am searching these suggestions. Guess what though my Hubby suprised me this morning with a rossi rifle circuit judge 44 mag revolver. It is light weight and I like the fiber sights. I'm just not sure what kind of range I will have with it. I'm going to take it out this afternoon and see what I can do.

I have been trying to figure how much weight I can reasonably hold, anything over 8lbs is difficult and it seems to make a difference on how long the barrel is. Seems like barrel length of 20" or more is causing discomfort in my neck as well. I guess it is because it changes how far I reach to hold it but if it is light enough it might make different.

I have a list now of firearms to try out, now I'm going to the gun shop to see if they have any available for me to hold and see, then see if they can order any in L/H

This getting old thing is horrible.

LadyKiller....if You go with a larger Caliber Deer Rifle I would reccomend getting some of the Remington Managed Recoil shells so it doesn't have as much recoil when shooting the Rifle.They make bullets for most of the popular Calibers like .270,30-06,30-30 and 7mm-08.A good benchrest or Caldwell shooting bags is a good thing to use when hunting out of raised box blind or even a set of shooting sticks to hold up Your Rigle for long shots making it easier on Your arms,shoulder and neck!
