Nah it's just that lefties like me learn to adapt to a right handed world so we get good at doing shit either way.

Lefty master race!

Have you ever fired a bolt action rifle before? They're intended to work best for the majority of people, i.e. right handed people. Racking the bolt with your right hand allows you keep your sights in line more effectively.

Notice how all the left handed guys shooting unsupported have to break their whole form to rack the bolt, the ones firing supported have a free right hand and have learned how to use it.

All of them have to reach awkwardly over the scope to bolt it, none of them are doing anything that a right-handed person couldn't do with more ease. Your point?

>>29836164
i shot lots of bolties and i found your "awkwardly reach over the scope" comfortable

it ain't hard
>>
>>29834709
The only bolt gun I can shoot just fine is a mosin because the bolt sticks straight out. I'm right handed but blind in my right eye so I have to shoot left handed with rifles.
>>
>>29836048
me too bolt actions are fun as fuck but i think it is because I'm left handed but shoot like a righty

Bolts are obviously made for right handed people, you can cycle the bolt of a nugget without breaking cheek weld or losing/obscuring your sight picture
