Rubber boot vs. boot + gaiter
That system definitely seems warm. I know in my first year I won't have any stand or anything. I will be doing some scouting in the area this summer (I know I'm late already!) but I hope to have a few spots picked out. I'm thinking I'll primarily be standing or sitting near some cover and...- DLaw

Rubber boot vs. boot + gaiter
There's definitely something appealing about rubber boots. The cost being one. How are yours with lateral stability? If you had to hike 3 miles withe a pack on a rocky trail would they work ok?- DLaw

Rubber boot vs. boot + gaiter
This year I plan to hunt whitetails in Pennsylvania. I'll be on state forest land on one of the major ridges in southwest PA. It's a lot of up and down and primarily hardwood forests. I've hunted a minimal amount in the past with others but this year I plan on figuring things out for myself. I...- DLaw

Is it time to switch to left handed shooting?
There is something appealing about an ambidextrous single shot like those from Thompson Center and others. Could solve my problem. -

Is it time to switch to left handed shooting?
That is interesting and I can see the advantages from certain shooting positions. Shooting off-hand or using a tree as a brace I would think it would be difficult to let go of the rifle with the support hand. I definitely see what you mean when shooting from a bench or prone but would it work... -

Is it time to switch to left handed shooting?
My left dominant eye. I never really thought about this until recently but I shoot with both eyes open and naturally my left eye is the one that is on line with the sights and target. I stand square to the target and I don't have to do any strange stance or cant the pistol in any strange way. I... -

Is it time to switch to left handed shooting?
Thanks everyone for the very helpful suggestions. Along with this thread I did some other research on the issue the issue today and I'm going to attempt to make the switch to a left handed rifle. I'm going to practice shouldering my 30-30 to my left side a bit each day while I look for a... -

Is it time to switch to left handed shooting?
I've shot a lot of different rifles over the years include a lot of time behind an issued M-4. The 30-30 is the only one I've owned. I've shot them all equally below average, especially for rapid acquisition type drills. It just never feels right and I have to close one eye. When I do that it's... -

Is it time to switch to left handed shooting?
I really dislike the idea of having my face on the ejection port side. I may try a few practice rounds like that but I think I would always be a nervous doing it that way. I'll always keep my 30-30 for sentimental reasons but I'm certainly not tied to it as I try to get into hunting a little... -

Is it time to switch to left handed shooting?
I had no idea such a thing existed. Potentially worth exploring if I can't find a better solution. I'm sure that work is not cheap! -

Is it time to switch to left handed shooting?
I may try my 30/30 left handed at the range just to see how it feels. I know it's rare but catastrophic failures generally send gasses and powder out through the ejection port so it makes me a little nervous to do it that way. I don't know anyone with a left handed rifle I could borrow at the... -

Is it time to switch to left handed shooting?
Hi everyone. This is my first post here. Reading various threads over the past week I've been very impressed with the tone and quality of this forum. It's such a great resource. I'm an inexperienced hunter from western Pennsylvania. I've hunted a few times with relatives but have yet to take a...
