Yes. (Is this a trick question?)
I have come here to chew bubblegum and kick ass. And I'm all out of bubblegum. I do tend to fit in well wherever I go in person. The campfire is the most outside exposure I get. No TV, no newspaper.

Now rollover RH cheekpieces can be uncomfortable to we lefties.

I spent the first 16 or 17 years of my shooting life with right handed rifles....hell I didn't even know lefties existed until I was 30 or so. I would have no problem what so ever shooting the hell out of that rifle other than the fact that it s called a man-licker
Yeah, well, you know, that's just, like, your opinion, man.

If the stock has the typical generous Sako palm swell, that and the interference from the front edge of the cheekpiece can will make gripping the rifle a bit awkward from the wrong side.

My dad's M700 .270 Win. with MC stock really is uncomfortable for me to shoot...
Just sayin ,all my rifles are left handed. My 700 '-06 with MC is a joy to shoot...
