I have a LH XPR 6.8 Western. Shoots MOA w/165 Accubonds. I couldn't get the heavier 170/175 to chamber.
Actually,it wasn't even close. All factory ammo.
I also have a LH Fierce Edge CT, 300 WM. All stainless. Doesn't like 150's but is OMG accurate w/180's. Incidentally, they're
made in Canada. Nice rifles.
Most complaints surrounding Fierce has to do w/ customer service, or lack of it. Rifles promised deliveries are late etc.
I bought mine used (barely). It's well made ,accurate and relatively light. I like it.

I bought a Hunter 350 for $679. In a lefty? I don't see that on their caliber list. Yes, LH. Hunter is the camo one. Only available in 350L and 6.8 Western currently. Next week should see some new product announcements Ahhh, I see it now. Wish it were a shorter barreled SR (suppressor ready) model.

Winchester put an 11/16x24 thread on it and uses a 450 brake for the 350. Kinda tells me they had the 400 planned for it all along. Fortunately they also include a properly contoured thread cap

I read that and thought it odd or a misprint. Is there enough of a shoulder for a suppressor to seat against?

They belled up the end of the barrel. No need to for the 6.8 or 350, so they must have been planning ahead.
Barrel O.D. is .850" at threads
6.8 is 9/16x24 and does not appear to be belled up like the 350

It is a RH but I had the itch to try one and was very impressed with it. It’s currently going up for sale to be replaced with a LH version. I’m OK if it takes some time to receive it. I have a few other LH rifles to use if needed.

Anyone making a LH .375 Ruger with a good synthetic stock? Something that would work in Alaska? i.e. Stainless?

Good to see more and more lefty options… when I was growing up they were just a few… so I always shot lever guns. Bolts were just single shot for me in rt hand.
