However, I would not buy a right handed rifle. I've been around left handers enough to know they always regret not having the right rifle. It's easy enough to take the stock to a gun smith and have him shorten the stock for you. It's a little more expensive than buying "stock", but a better choice than shooting wrong handed.

I myself am a left handed rifle shooter, and I never realy had any problems manipulating a right bolt. I realised when I first found out that my left eye was my dominate eye. That I would not always have the option of having a left bolt. I didnt want to be crippled by this.
Vickyjo,
Next time you hold a right handed boltgun. Use your right hand to hold the forgrip, then rotate the rifle counter clockwise so the bolt is facing up, then brace the butt of the rifle agenst your left sholder. Use your left hand to pull the bolt lever to the left, then use your left hand to pull back the bolt lever. You then use the left hand to close the bolt. Then rotate the rifle back into place.
I hope I described the prosess so its understandable.
Back to rifle choices, I would go with the Encore.
