Getting ready to delve into building a new gun the ?? is I am Left handed All the guns that I have shot or own are Right handed and it seems like 2nd nature do I really want to build my long range hunting rifle LEFT handed??? I know it will be harder to sell it if I choose thus hopefully I will get it right and use it for years to come.
If you like Remington 700 actions I would start here:
http://www.pierceengineeringltd.com/products.phpI have a 700 but if Pierce had been building 700 clones I would have bought one. I use a Piercecision Firing pin assembly for my 700. It was suppose to be a drop in and guess what it was a drop in. I unscrewed the Remington firing pin assembly and screwed in the Pierce and than went to the range and shot the rifle. Couple of thousand rounds later the rifle shoots fine and never misses a beat.
Pierce makes a LH action but you have to ask for it. The prices they quoted me for a LH action were reasonably. Pierce's 700 clones is how they think Remington should have done it in the first place. BTW: All their stuff is made to Remington specs as to size so their hardware will fit after market 700 stocks and harware.
