Looking for a LH Win M-70 FW

I am looking for a LH Win M-70 FW in 7-08, .260, .243, 6.5 X 55, or any other deer suitable caliber suitable for a young small female shooter.

These were only offered via the custom shop and not very many then at all. I saw a custom shop LH .308 FW advertised several months back for a cool $2500.

I'm guessing you're not wanting to spend near that much. Your options under $1K in the calibers listed are then Tikka (common), Savage (common), or Remington (not too common).

The only non-custom shop factory LH M70 featherweights I am aware of were offered in the WSM calibers (300, 270, and 7mm WSM). They offer the featherweight-style stock, but not the featherweight barrel profile.
