My son wants a 6.8 Western but he's a lefty. Well actually left eye dominant and right handed. He shoots as a lefty. There are very few choices.

He's considering a custom build but I don't know enough to really give sound advice. I suggested a Defiance action, but they're almost as much as a rifle. With a carbon six barrel and a light stock, bottom metal and trigger it gets spend quick.

Is there enough room in a WSM based rifle to rebarrel to 6.8 without having to seat the bullets to deep to be worth the effort?
