Ken in VANosler says they'll have a LH'er
I sent the folks at Nosler an email yesterday asking if any lefties are going to be included in their rifle lineup.
Got a reply back today that said they are going to be producing one in a couple of months. Its a long action.
I just hope they offer something besides the standard .270, 30/06, 7 mag, 300 mag quartet.

Cliff LyleThis is good but most companies make a few versions in the standard long action. I would like to see additional offerings in short action calibers. This was why I got so excited about Ruger's announcement with their hawkeye. If it ever shows up...

GeorgeSThanks for the update, Ken.
Unfortunately, Nosler rifles cost upwards of $3000 the last time I looked, and as you know from your recent order with NULA, that money can buy you a lot of firearm.

Don't forget their 280 AI chambering.

SnowwolfeYou can order a Custom Cooper in just about any non magnum caliber up to .338/06 for about $1,600
Basic price is $1,595, add $200 for LH. But these are MSRP and most dealers sell them for sell.
My biggest fear is when I die my wife will sell my guns for what I told her they cost.

GeorgeSI hae a Cooper M21 in .17 Mach IV, but unless something has changed recently, Cooper does not make centerfire repeaters.

SnowwolfeSomething changed

Cooper offers all there rifles in left hand except the TRP. I have a LVT 17 HMR built by them and a Custom Classic .22LR and a Jackson Squirrel rifle in .22 WMR on order.
Pretty pleased with there customer service at this point. The 17 would not feed the first one out of the mag 100% when it was full. Cooper prepaid shipping both ways and had it returned in less than 2 weeks.
On the Custom Classic .22 it was ordered with upgraded wood and my dealer emailed me photos of the finished rifle and I disliked the stock. Cooper agreed to restock it and then sent me a few pictures of wood blanks to pick from.
The only complaint I have about there centerfire repeater is it only holds three down. Still, been kicking around the idea of ordering one in .338/06.
I ordered mine from Mark at First Stop Guns in SD. Mark is a stand up guy and easy to work with and had the best prices to boot.
http://www.firststopguns.com/Sorry for hijacking the thread. But any news for us lefties is good news!

Ken in VAGeorge,
You're absolutely right about the $$$.
I looked at Cooper. And will probably, at some point, order one. I've wanted a NULA for a while now and just had to scratch that itch.
I'm hoping that Cooper will make their synthetic stock available in LH. I got to look at one of them at a shop the other day and was very impressed with it.

Ken in VAGeorge,
Forgot to add to my last post.
Cooper has started making a repeater model in their 52. There are many stories on the forums though r/t an issue with the magazine popping out during a shot. All have been fixed after being sent back to Cooper.

sharpsguyScrew Cooper. He voted with his checkbook, and I vote with mine.

SnowwolfeCooper rifles was sold to Wilson Arms many months ago.
Don't blame the employes for the actions of one.

sharpsguyIf that's the case, they need to put the Wilson name on them. If it says Cooper on the barrel, it is still Cooper by any reasonable definition.
