I've been planning on doing this for a while now.It's been several years since I came up with the idea, and it just keeps getting pushed off the stove (not even on the back burner yet).
The idea came to me years after my dad told me a little tidbit of Conspiracy history. Years after JFK was killed, someone did a test to see if the supposed thought of one man doing the shooting was plausible. They set up the situation that Oswald would have had from the School Book Depository Window, had the target at the same distance, and moving the same speed. They also used the same model Carcano, with the same scope set-up. They used all accomplished competition shooters (30 or so), and timed the speed it took them. All but a couple made the shot (accuracy wise), but only a few made it in the same time (or less) than during the assassination. The only ones that made the time (they also each made the accuracy) were each left-handed. The weird thing (or not so weird thing) is that LHO was also left-handed. So they proved that it was plausible that he acted alone.
So years later, when I decided that I wanted to build a long-range "sniper" style rifle, I determined that it would be left handed. The problem is trying to find a used Remington 700 short action, that is left-handed. I've been looking for about 7 years, and still haven't found it (in any condition, much less in poor condition).
