New build for left eyed righthand shooter

[Flintandsteel]

I think I’d just learn to shoot left handed.

Well that's what I thought but he wanted this.

I think I’d just learn to shoot left handed.

Right (dominant) eye acuity dropped to 20/500 3 years ago due to detached retina and subsequent repair. Shooting left handed is challenging for me but I work at it.
One of the best pieces of advice I got was do a lot of left hand shooting with a .22 unmentionable. The ammo is, relatively, cheap. It helps me get used to something that was unnatural the first six decades of my life.

Interesting. It would have worked out even better if a left hand lock was used. You could name it either the Dog-Leg or Catawampus stock.

Nice job. It'll be interesting to see the recoil tendencies of that rifle.

I don't think it will be bad 38inch b wt bbl 50 cal with 80 grains of 3f for deer hunting should be pleasant to shoot.

Nice job. It'll be interesting to see the recoil tendencies of that rifle.

John Amber (Gun Digest) had several
“cross over” stocks built.

Nicely done - I'm impressed. I've seen this kind of stock work done for an ATA trapshooter who had an eye damaged and need a crossover stock for him to continue shooting. He shot very well with it by the way. I also know some shooters that learned to shoot left-handed and they also did good.
