Come on, guys, you're cheating! The thread is what left-hand guns do you own.

ruger #1 .35 whelen
browning bps 12 ga
Marlin .22 semi

The above are not left-hand rifles.

Just one of those nifty little Savage 93s in 17HMR and a lefty stock set in a nutmeg thumbhole flavor for a Thompson/Center Encore. E. A. Brown Co. had about a hundred sets of them as a trial sales effort last October. I was lucky enough to get one. I do not know if they are still to be had, but they are sure nice...

I currently own

Remington 40X 308 Palma Rifle
Remington 700 in 30-338 in a Sleeved Action by Mitchel Maxberry
Weatherby Mark V in 30-06 Got it from the Bank of Boulder when I was 17 years old
Winchester Model 70 Classic in .338 Win.
M1 Benelli 12 Gauge

I also have two Ruger No. 1s and 2 Browning BPS.

I am thinking about building a 458 Lott. Is the Montana barrelled action a good value and if so who makes a good synthetic stock that can take the recoil.

12 April 2008, 05:26

ROSCOE

Talk to snowwolfe...he is the LH montana expert. Yes it is a very good action IMO.

Thanks for the vote of confidence Roscoe but I hardly consider myself the expert on MRC's, lol.

But I do own a couple, one is a finished left hand Lott with the MRC #5 barrel 24 inches long. I just finished having NECG masterpiece sights installed on it and it is ready to go to the range. It holds three down. I ordered a McMillan stock for it and it was a good drop in fit. So good I may not have to glass bed it. It seems to feed and eject very well. I did notice the edges of the magazine box were very sharp and occassionly the magazine follower would snag at the bottom. This should be an easy fix for anyone owning a dremel. I just been to lazy to get to it.

The other one I own is the standard '06 sized action which will wear a Lilja barrel in 35 Whelen. I think the MRC is a great action for us lefties. They will make any barreled action you want in left handed.
But I would not use them on any project where you are desiring a light weight rifle.

But back on track, McMillan will build you a stock to handle the 458 Lott. I order mine from Rick Bin over on the 24 hour campground forum. Great stocks but they take 5-6 months.

Your three lefty rifles efficiently cover the entire range of four legged game from the smallest to the largest on earth. Add in a 22lr of some sort and a 12ga and every game aninimal on earth can be effectively hunted, incluuuding the ubiquitous tin can.

Yep, just add the CZ 452 American in 22 lr and you could stop buying guns.

I'm glad that I'm not in your shoes!

I have been looking at a CZ 452 lefty but also looking at a Anschutz can not decide at the moment, the other left'ys I am waiting for are CZ in 416Rigby and 300H&H these were promised by CZ over a year ago but still nothing.

I notice you have a GMA .416 Rigby action and you are in South Africa, did Selous ever make the Left Hand action?

27 May 2008, 22:29

adam2

SJM - I am not familiar with the Selous actions but I know Vektor once manufactured a true copy of the M98 magnum action. I don't know whether it was ever offered in left hand, but I don't think so.

28 May 2008, 10:05

I heard some proto-types were made but thats it, The GMA is good action I have one in .505 Gibbs.

I can see now why trying to trade for a left-handed 458 Win, I'm not having any luck.
Didn't see a one in all the very fine collections posted here. Might just have to sell the Hawkeye and buy a MRC.....

Thanks to the AR for opening this forum.

I only own a M70 classic in 30 06 and in December it will be sent to Dennis Olsen for his workmanship to turn it into a 375. Once that is complete it will be fitted into an Echols Legend stock and hopefully it'll be the last rifle I own for a while.

Of course...I held a gorgeous double rifle the other day..
