This is probably a dumb question, but is it possible to by a LH Tikka action for a build like we could with Remington or Savage? I've never seen one for sale but I live a sheltered life sometimes.
They say everything happens for a reason. For me that reason is usually because I've made some bad decisions that I need to pay for.

I've never seen one but that doesn't mean much. I just buy a rifle and use it as a donor, knowing its a pretty expensive way to do it.
There are 2 rules to success:
1. Never tell everything that you know.

yeah that's what I figured. If the action only was an option I'm sure there would have been way more talk about it on here. LOL

I’ve looked once or twice and not seen one. However, there’s a market for Tikka parts of you wish to buy a rifle and part it out. At $875 each, parting one out would get you in the REM 700 action ballpark. Maybe.

Jaoutdoors sales factory tikka actions and tons of other tikka parts. They seem to get lefty actions occasionally. You might contact them and have them hold you one the next time they get one

Thanks for the heads up. I emailed them to see what they can do. Their prices seem decent. I'd go for a couple if they can get them. Have a few 700's waiting to be reassigned, but I like the Tikkas better.
