So, I have a couple of pistols and shottys but only one rifle. It's a Bushmaster AR15. I'm interested in grabbing a .308 rifle as I've decided that hog hunting is fun and would like a little larger caliber.
Problem I have is, I'm a lefty. It seems that good ole mr reliable reputation is the Remington 700 and the idea of a trusty bolt gun seems nice. However, being a lefty, any prone shooting leaves me having to run the bolt with my rest hand rather than my trigger hand.
What say the OSA?
Is this no big deal and go for mr. reliable reputation or should I go with a semi-auto so I need not run a bolt and eliminate the problem?
(I know that the 700 is available in left handed bolt but I'm sure they'll be super hard to find used)
