Any right-handed shooters using a left-handed bolt action "tactical" rifle?

I am a lefty and have been using RH rifles inbolt action all of my life. Shooting a RH rifle RH is doable for me,.but is absolutely a foreign concept to me. I shoot and control with the left hand,..and run the bolt with my right, doesn't matter from what position.
 
I don't understand how you can say that it doesn't work when I let the trigger forward until it clicks before operating the bolt.
Well, you also said:
shooting off the reset with an AR-15/AK/handgun
which is generally understood as doing what I said.

In any case, neither a Rem700, AI, nor Mauser trigger will "click forward"-- they just remain kind of spongy until the striker is reset.

If your special "killing" technique is to keep your finger on the trigger to shoot faster, then not having "finger off trigger" as one of those steps is going to mean eventually the striker will follow and the rifle will fail to fire.

In either case: finger off trigger while operate action for safety (no AD/ND) and reliability.

Bolt rifle triggers are often adjusted to very low weights, and this makes it more important.
