I was digging on the net this week looking at LH options for my daughter and stumbled on these. She is currently shooting a RH Model Seven, but I told her several yrs ago, if she stuck with hunting, I would buy her a LH gun at some point. She is very small framed and likely can and should shoot a "youth" rifle her whole life. I had no idea that Browning had ever made the micro X-bolt in left hand. Apparently they did for a short time....but not now.

Has anyone here ever seen one? Or have any idea where to purchase one? I found a couple for sale on obscure websites, but I'd rather deal with some confidence.

I'm thinking 6.5 CM or 7mm-08.

Thanks in advance

Had one of each a few years ago. Good shooters. Bought one at a local shop and the other at CDNN Investments. Sold them both when I was able to pick up an A Bolt Micro 7-08 in LH. Had I not found he A Bolt, I'd still have them...

That would be awesome! Didn't know they made those either. After shooting several of each, I'm beginning to think the A-bolt is a better gun than the X-bolt.......

I would agree. But try and find one now... Cabela's had one about a month ago for 899$. Didn't last long.

My small lh granddaughter shoots a cooper .250. Might try the cooper route.

Bought my son one in 6.5 CM. It’s a sweet little rifle. He’s 11 and it carries well and plenty accurate. Hard to beat, especially when looking for a wood stocked, left handed, compact rifle. That’s not a common combination however, and I think i had my eyes peeled for about 2 years before this one popped up here on the campfire.
