Sure wish that Remington came in a stainless version. I like that look with the synthetic stock.

I stopped in Bass Pro Shops Pearland and their computer showed several left handed models available for order.

The counter salesman told me to bring model #'s of rifles that interest me and they will see about locating them.

A quick search showed several Savage, Tikka and Remington models available.

This thread was opened for a very simple reason.

I contacted a major local Firearm merchant and two large online supply houses. None of them could tell me when or if left handed bolt action rifles would be available or could be found.

This did surprise me. With everything that's out there i didn't think this would be that big of a deal.

I'm a lefty and i'm not interested in having brass fly across my face or have the bolt in my peripheral vision.

I have a 15-22 and everytime i shoot it i wind up with powder stings on my face.

I've checked out a Tikka and didn't like the synthetic stock feel.

Guy at local shop tol me lefty's by right hand bolt rifles all the time.

Would like to hear a lefty's opinion on this.

I take it you are a Ruger fan. Their GS Scout 308 is available in a left handed model that is readily available, unlike the RH models.

Mostly Smith & Browning fan. Have a .22 Mark III that's a solid shooter.

I like the look of the Scout. Wonder if Ruger will offer different calibers down the road?
