Guys: As always, good advice and interesting anecdotes as well. My son already shoots some right-handed guns (pumps, autos, levers), but I just couldn't figure out how it would work with a bolt gun. The Ruger No. 1 is the way I've been leaning, or if I can find a good lefty bolt gun in the right caliber sometime soon, I'll go that route. Otherwise I'll have him shoot one of my lever guns (a .30-30 or a .45-70), since our stand will, I hope, offer a pretty close shot. Thanks. TT
