[QUOTE="codyadams, post: 1809535, member: 87243"] Are you a lefty? Or just want it to be shootable for a lefty? Hmm. It does look like it would be somewhat sharp...I know I shoot my cousin's rifle that is a Boyds right handed thumbhole and has a very sharp cheek area for a lefty and it is fine to deal with, but it is a braked .270 Sherman, so significantly less recoil. My buddies 11.5 lb .338 NM in an EH-1A doesn't have any more felt recoil than a sporter .243/6.5 cm, but it does this weird thing where it almost stings your cheek, like it's slapping you, even with a solid cheek weld. If it was sharp like that CA Traverse appears to be, I could see where that could be a problem. On a different note....do you know if CA uses the same actions for the .338 bolt face cartridges that they do with their other ones? Or are the Lapua/Norma rifles upgraded with a .750" bolt? Just curious, I haven't found an answer yet.... [/QUOTE]
