Are any manufacturers besides Cooper and Browning making a left-handed bolt rifle in 22 Hornet?

Kimber of Oregon made them but they are hard to find. The browning gun is nice and mine shoots very well.

I have one of the Brownings. It's a nice, light walking around rifle. I'm looking for something with a heavier barrel, or that I can use as a donor action and have something built. Did Anschutz or Sako ever make a left-handed Hornet?

I have a VX II 3x9 on my gun. Works out fine. My 9 year old daughter just shot her first deer with this gun last week. She loves the rifle. I tried to get her to use a 223 but after shooting both she said the Hornet was better! Who am I to argue? The deer fell on the spot and never moved...quite amazing to be honest. I expected to have to track for a while and was happy I did not have to.

Anschutz did, I had a lovely 1730 for a time, was a very accurate rifle.

I was walking the Tulsa Gun Show yesterday and found 2 Kimber LH Hornets. Both beautiful and both over $2,000.

Yup, Anschutz did; like 505ED states:

I had one in my hands and was VERY impressed. Sadly; the owner wasn't ready to part with it.


Cheers,
