Range Report: daily plinking

[Vaquero]

Sounds lije a good morning there Gene.
I got out for a few minutes here a little bit ago.
Been sprinkling and drizzling rain off and on today.
Left eye was a little blurry, but I still managed a decent group.

Just had one sandbag sitting on the arm of a chair. The loner on the RH target was the first shot.
A couple guys and I were talking about shooting ambidextrous, and I haven't done any in a while so I pulled out the ole M60 and gave it a go.

Those old 67s and 68s are about as good as it gets in a single shot bolt 22. Great work, Gene.

Interesting, I’ve never tried left hand shooting other than with a handgun in drills. My son is left handed and when I see him shoot it’s just wrong.

I can shoot left and right handed equally bad. I’m left eye dominant but have floaters in my left eye. I can shoot faster right-handed because I don’t have to wait for the floaters to clear.

I am cross eyed dominant, meaning I am right handed and my left eye is dominant. I've always managed to shoot rifles and handguns right handed, though. Just a matter of adapting as needed. In fact, when shooting handguns, I can switch between my right eye and left eye in a single shooting session.

I’m naturally left-handed and left-eyed. Shooting rifle right handed and eyed is actually quite easy. Pistol is a whole different ballgame. I can shoot pistol okay as a righty it’s the magazine changes that kills me.

I’ve shot revolvers two at a time before and it was easy going back and forth as I alternated shooting.

Me, too. Right handed, left eye dominant.

I can't quite bring myself to shoot left handed (rifle or revolver) and I don't shoot nearly as well as you do, but I do shoot well enough to be satisfied by my results most of the time. I'm my only competition, so I'm just happy with the sport, regardless.

[North Country Gal]

Same for me. I really am my only competition, but I do push myself pretty hard.

[Vaquero]

I'm in no competition with anyone and never have been.
But, I have been in situations where being able to shoot left-handed was much easier than trying to turn all the way around to get a shot right-handed.
I've killed several deer shooting LH.

I like shooting left and right handed at the same time as in Ma Deuce.
