[QUOTE="Lefty7mmstw, post: 970627, member: 48043"] It depends on the weight of the rifle for me when I'm using a righty rifle lefty. If it's over 10# or so I'll go over the top like you are showing, but the scope is in the way so a bit of rifle cant is necessary. If she's a sporter I'll simply hold the rifle at the wrist and operate the action as a righty would. I also don't usually sling up when hunting. I've done it but for small-bore match years ago; shooting jacket and sling were nearly mandatory for that. I much prefer lh rifles to rh rifles in the field as I'm tracking the critter in the scope and don't want to be fiddling with the rifle. That said, I've taken many of my longest shots with a rh rifle shot lh. [/QUOTE]
