Kahles. Left or Right wind knob?

I went with LSW on my Kahles 525 and like it. If I need to dial wind in some positions, it is easier for me to balance / hold my position with my right hand on the grip of the rifle. Prone or bench I can more easily see the windage and can adjust with less disruption to my position (breaking cheek weld to see it on the right side). I wish more scope manufacturers offered this option.
I don't own a Kahles but I would go right side just for consistency as almost every other scope out there has the wind dial on the right.
It's all preference at the end of the day; however, if you adjust elevation with your left hand, it becomes very intuitive to adjust windage with the left as well. I will note that I rarely adjust windage and mostly do wind hold overs.
I’m backwards in everything. Left handed but prefer rsw on Kahles optics. I can adjust wind basically without breaking my shooting position which is helpful when zeroing. The top focus knob is tits for me as well. My favorite features on kahles scopes.
Glad to see someone else is offering this feature.
I’m left handed and prefer capped wind as I always hold. However, I dial parallax a lot (habit from cmp/high power) to see mirage at different distances.
So I think almost all scopes are really left handed. But I didn’t realize that until I had a US Optics 5-25x built with wind and parallax swapped. Great scope but turned out less useful for me.
