[QUOTE="royinidaho, post: 80082, member: 2011"] From my own recent experience. I would recommend switching sides only if dictated by the ol' body, as in when parts start going south. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img] Ol macualar degeneration hit the right eye, which doesn't see straight any longer. Cross hairs look like snakes and shifts from time to time. Plus things are dimmer on that side. Once I figured it was the eye and not the scope I was immedately a left handed shooter. I gave my thumbhole stocked custom rifle to my son and bought a left handed rifle. If the thumbhole could have been easily converted to facilitate shooting left handed I would have done that but.... I wouldn't consider shifting just because the rifle is a sweet looking little thing. Too much thinking like that could cause one to end up being married to the wrong woman [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img] As a PS: if you get the rifle, dump those rings. You may well end up with a muzzle brake on it, which would be reasonable. But those rings won't cut it w/a brake. Another recent personal experience. I think Burris signatures will fit on those bases. FWIW. Also right eye dominate don't make a squat as far as shifting sides. My right eye is still dominant tho crooked... Ya gotta do whatcha gotta do to keep shootin' [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] Regards [/QUOTE]
