I have a spin on this. I am left handed, and an accomplished shot with any weapon in my hand, most successfully, a rifle. My Rem 700 .223 varmit rifle (really just an out of the box rifle with decent, not expensive optics) I'll hold a 2in group all day, with factory ammo, better with hand-loads or match, just a ragged hole about the size of a silver dollar at 200m. As for wing shooting, a box of shells lasts me 2-3 hunts with full limmits mostly, but maybe thats just taking wise shots. Don't mean to be blowing my own horn, but I think more than anything with my success has been practice....I shoot 2-3 times per week, a minimum of 2-3 hours at the range each time. I shoot NRA high-power matches, IDPA and 3-gun also. SO........really, if anyone practiced as much as I do and took it seriously, they'd be a pretty darn good shot also. As for being a lefty, I am an accomplished artist, (I'm in the right state of mind ...ha ha.......ha .ha) As for good looking...well, it landed me a better looking wife than I deserve. Heres the weird part of this though. Me AND my wife are left handed...so are our 3 boys, we didn't teach them that way, they just started doing more with their left...writing, eating, brushing teeth..........and to top THAT off, for me and my wife, everyone we have both ever dated have been left handed also.....pretty crazy huh??? As for my boys being lefties.....my oldest likes to fish, not really into shooting, but my middle boy he's 7, and in a year or so we're gonna be comparing groups and makin wagers, he shoots each and every time I do and he's pretty damn good, even by adult standards. My youngest....he scares me with a rubber-band, let-alone a firearm, so we'll see...........
