Left-hand rifle options

[Brian in Montana]

I’ve been looking for and aftermarket stock for my Tikka for years. Can’t find one in like that is lightweight or to my liking yet.

I actually like Tikka's and factory stock. I have put a vertical grip on both of mine. They're very easy to change out and can be ordered on Amazon.

I have liked the B&C Tikka.

Unfortunately they dont make a lefty and supposedly have no plan to build one.

A dremel, a little devcon and some spray paint could probably allow use with lefty tikka action.

Stockys is now listing a left hand B&C T3 stock. The photos show a right hand stock, but the description says “Left Hand” and the right hand stock is listed separately. None are “in stock.” It might be worth giving them a call if you are interested in a B&C.

I was wrong, this is a new development me thinks. I checked their website and they show a left hand sporter version now, it wasnt there a few months ago when I checked.

Check Oregunsmithing, Mesa precision arms, and Manners has a bad ass new tikka stock with adjustable cheek piece. I put the vertical grip on my Tikka t3x and I am very happy with it.

I have a Savage 110 in 270 and love it. I have mine topped with a Vortex Strike Eagle ffp scope. It is q great combo for me. The Tikka is also a great rifle. I have shot both and think you would be happy with either.

Not a bolt, but worth remembering that the Ruger Number One is equally suitable for left or right handed shooters:

I've got a couple of them, and dearly love hunting with these Ruger single shot rifles.

I’m looking to buy a new rifle before next season. I am left handed and looking for a bolt action which limits some options. I was initially leaning toward the Tikka t3x lite stainless but can get a good deal on the Savage 110 storm. I think I’m set on getting either one in 270 if that makes a difference. Anybody compared these two before? Would the Tikka be worth the extra money?

Left handers get the short end of the stick. I have a Montana extreme ll. Accurate to 600 yards or more. If you can get an older used one I'd snatch it up. Company grew too fast and went bankrupt. I wouldn't touch one that came off the line right before they closed

My left handed wife has a Browning X-Bolt in lefty. My hunting buddy has a left handed Tikka. Both are happy with their rifles.

 

[NDGuy]

If I was buying a new rifle I'd wait and see if Tikka is coming out in left hand for their Rough Tec model. That's a sweet package for the $$

This is a lefty, stainless Browning.

I have two lefty WBY Mark Vs.

Savage is coming out with the impulse which will be interchangeable

What calibers do you have...and what is your opinion on the quality/Customer Service (if any)? I'm looking for a new rifle having sold my .30-06 and 300 Win Mag in the past 2 weeks. I got offers on them I couldn't refuse (sold them each for what I paid for the gun) but right now it's sell high/buy higher it seems. I am taking a serious look at a Weatherby.

We bought a Christensen Arms Mesa in left hand for my son this year. He likes it.

I’ve had a 270 WBY magnum and currently have a 257 WBY magnum and a 300 WBY magnum. Outstanding fit and finish. I hear the customer service is good, but have never had the need for it myself.

 

[Ben Lamb]

Ruger Mark ii or hawkeye in left hand is a viable option as well. I'll second the #1 for a lefty. I love hunting with mine.

Tikka is probably the best dollars to donuts value in a left handed bolt rifle, imo, but the Browning is sexier.

 

[gradeAchuck]

I was in a similar boat a few years ago and decided on a Tikka Tx3 Lite Stainless in 300 WinMag. Fit and feel was just right for me. I've been very pleased with it so far.

Handled a Mesa for the first time at a new LGS. Very much liked it. My boys will not be as fortunate as your. Though I am buying the parts to make them an IN deer legal LH AR.
