Has anyone manufactured a 17 mach 2 in left hand bolt action? I love the round but rifles are pretty rare and spendy but I just have to have one.
Any info is much appreciated!

Installing a redman barrel liner would allow you to take any left handed bolt action .22 lr rifle and convert it to .17 hm2. Cost $200 to $300 depending on your chosen gunsmith. May also be some .17 hm2 barrels available for switch barrel rifles. Post a thread on rimfire central under their .17 hm2 forum to see what responses you get. I'm a righty but I did convert bolt action rifle a few years ago.

I rebarreled a LH T-Bolt to 17 HM2. It uses 22LR mags. Also had a LH Remington 581 worked over by Brian Voelker to 17 HM2. Both are excellent shooters.


There are 2 rules to success:

I’ve relined a Ruger 10/22 and a Chinese bolt clip magazine rifle with Redman liners. I’m very happy with both.
