Ambidextral Hunter

ambidextrous hunting

As I have noted in both "The Ambidextral Rifleman" and "The Ambidextral Gunfighter", the Lever Action is the best, most perfectly mirrored, manual action. 
Why serious hunters should become ambidextrous...Ambidextral Hunters.

Optimal use of cover.
Optimal use of concealment.
Optimal use of terrain for steady hold factors.

The how (easy), like in The Ambidextral Gunfighter, is translated to a hunter's context.

How current hunting, manual action, rifle platforms can be improved and made safer for the ambidextral hunter.

"This is the primary video in the Safety in Bear Country video series, and is a major educational tool for anyone living, traveling, or working in black and grizzly bear country in North America. It includes the consensus opinion of leading experts on bear behavior and its relevance to human safety.  Viewers will develop a better understanding of bear behavior and how this knowledge can help them to minimize the chance of bear encounters and bear attacks. The video stresses that a much greater degree of co-existence with bears is possible if people understand and apply a few safety principles."

Tikka T1x

The Ambidextral Gunfighter discovers (and re-discovers) the charms of the bolt action rifle...especially the bolt action 22LR. 
How to upgrade and improve the Tikka T1x rifle stock.
The Ruger 10/22 Collectors Series 2nd Edition has been a longtime Project Appleseed favorite. Equipped with a BX Trigger it has earned many Appleseed students their Rifleman patch. Can the exceptional Tikka T1x bolt gun deliver Rifleman scores equal to the 10/22?

Marlin Guide Gun

While I have not personally tested the Maven RF1 rangefinder, I do like that it is made in the Phillippines rather than the PRC. It looks like premium quality from a Lander, WY optics manufacturer.
