Thinking of building a scout style bolt gun for hunting - I'm a lefty and finding lefty action rifles can be tricky - add in my own particular wants and I'm looking at a near custom build anyway.
But if I start with an off the shelf righty bolt gun (new Win mod 70 in .308) and build a scout, I'm slightly ahead.
The forward mounted scope provided more clearance for the googly bolt operation, the short action provides a shorter/quicker stroke with less "bopping myself in the nose"
questions:
any lefties here operating a righty bolt gun?
anybody here have a scout style set up? Care to share your build specs?
