I am considering a Tikka Lefty in 22-250.Would prefer the wood and blue,when you look at the choices most models say lefty available but as you go to specs they are all right hand. Any help on this ? GB has 3 all in stainless and black.

Looks like the 22-250 is available in the Hunter blued.

We handled a left hand blued Hunter in 30-06 a while back and it was a really nice gun. It would have gone home with us had we had the extra money. I would love a LH 222 or 223 in that configuration as well.

My take is that per their catalog, Tikka makes a fairly nice selection of Left Hand Rifles... In Finland... Getting the majority of those Left Handed Hen's Teeth imported into the U.S.A. is another story. Apparently the current importer (Beretta?) is not strong on Southpaw Support. Hence the dearth of unique Left Hand Tikka combinations in the U.S.

I would be willing to pre-pay an importer to guarantee the purchase of a Left Hand Stainless Fluted T3/T3x chambered 6.5x55 here in the U.S. ...

I thank you both and I will call one of the distributors and see what they say.
