The hardest L/H Winchester model 70 to find in the standard bolt face is the 270 Winchester. The only short action model 70’s I seen were the one chambered in the WSM’s. Your lefty in the 06 same price I mentioned already. On gunbroker probably go close to 2 grand. Winchester will never make a L/H model 70 again so what’s out thier is highly sought after. 79 - I'm curious why you think they'll *never* do it again? Seems like every so often they'd do a limited run just to keep a market alive for lefties. When you say every so often,,,like once in a lifetime often?

Definitely not my cup-o-tea. However, have this thought in my head that a LH JOC Tribute rifle built on the first ever LH M70 receiver would be pretty cool. Up the cool factor by having Mr. Echols do the work. It is all out of my grasp. But loonies gotta dream….  Out of my grasp too....but I like the way you think.

New Haven closed, 2008 FN brought them back out so 2068 is when a lefty will be offered again. People been wanting a synthetic stainless in a 375 H&H Winchester can’t even do that, much less make a run of lefties.
Then STFU. The rest of your statement is superflous bullshit with no real bearing on this discussion other than to massage your own ego. Suckin' on my titties like you wanted me.

They don't have the tooling or the know how to make a damn left hand rifle. He's trying to be nice. Its not fu CKING Winchester anymore. Nuff said...
I try to stick with the basics, they do so well. Nothing fancy mind you, just plain jane will get it done with style. You want to see an animal drop right now? Shoot him in the ear hole. BSA MAGA

We will see a left handed xpr long before we ever see a lefty baco model 70.. I’m sure they have the ability and tooling to do it. But is their a market demand? If so we would’ve saw a left kimber 84L and 84M a long time ago.

Oh lawrence you got into the fire water again lol... also it's Portuguese not philipino, far as a company being for themselves? That's any company looking to make money.. it is ironic you cuss winchester being made in Portugal but you have a gun safe full of tikkas that are made in Sweden that's owned by beretta lol.. for the record I own 1 baco model 70 and it's a South Carolina rifle..

Eh... if you want to really split that hair, Winchester wasn't Winchester long before they started making Model 70s. So how far back do you want to go? The quality of the Portugal-made rifles is excellent... which is what actually matters. And what rifle company *isn't* trying to make a profit? Oh, right, Remington. How'd that work out?
