Every now and then, but not often, I see a LH M700 short action. I have a M700LHSA in .243 Win.. You're right, don't often see a SA M700. Was a .243 but now a .25-284.

Factory LH Remington 700 KS in 35 Whelen and a factory LH Remington 700 FS in 338 Win. Sold the 338, kept the Whelen. I may sell that one too. I have not shot it since I got it. I have other guns I use more.

The only two I have are both Classic Winchester 70's with controlled feed and nice walnut stocks: One in 30-06 and the other a 270 WSM. I would have preferred a standard 270 but ya gotta get whats available.

Dean My LH KS 270 is my "go-to" rifle. Significantly tweaked. However, if you put it back to box stock, would still be my go-to rifle.

Is the ruger Hawkeye LH standard still discontinued?
If so, then I would like to consider mine as my most rare LH rifle.

I just picked up a factory Remington 308, 700P LTR LH; HS stock, 40x trigger, fluted 20" 1-10, 5r-- seems like they are a more recent production but not common. Just wish it took AICS mags!

Kimber of Oregon 82 Custom Classic and an Anschutz 54MS. Priceless to me. Very rare I never see them offered.

Almost a year without a post to this great thread; I figured (as with my prior posts) I'd post something before it falls into obscurity. I hope no-one minds a 22LR hybrid. Being the only one it probably qualifies as rare.... Left Handed CZ MS-R Silhouette ??I wanted a lightweight Silhouette rifle. I had a left-handed Anschutz 54MS, the king of Silhouette rifles, although quite heavy and only a single-shot. The Anschutz MS stock is perhaps the most copied stock out there for good reason. The 54MS is very heavy for casual use. I wanted a repeater without all the pork. I started with a well used left-handed Anschutz 54MS stock and trigger guard. While having contemplated it for a while, I now had to decide what to use for the light-weight donor action. The contenders were a LH Savage, a LH Remington 581, LH CZ 452, or a LH Anschutz 1416. The main criteria were trigger location, bolt handle location, and action diameter. It turns out the beefy CZ 452 actions are the same diameter as the Anschutz 54 action (who would've thought) and the bolt handle was also the closest fit (to the bolt cut-out) of the bunch. Since I didn't know what I was doing, I didn't want to spend a lot given it might end up as a tomato stake. Next I had to decide LH CZ 452 American or Lux. I have an American but the action mounts meant I couldn't use the Anschutz trigger guard without really complicating things. The 452 Lux mounts actually simplified things quite a bit. Since the comb is too high for the sights and I wanted to thread the muzzle, the sights were removed. It shoots great!...Tom [ Linked Image]

I have a 350 legend on a 700 receiver waiting for me at the smith’s when I get home. Trying to decide if it will go in a walnut BDL take off or if I’ll stick it in a B&C I’ve got squirreled away.
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.

Unfired M70 Classic Stainless BOSS in .30-06. Likely as rare as it's ever going to get for me, I like my Hawkeyes.

Probably my Kimber 84 LH in 17 Rem-223 Improved. The rifle didn't cost that much but I still need to suck it up to get the dies for it.

My rarest is probably a 700LSS with a factory 257 Weatherby chambering. Only one I’ve ever seen.

Don't know if it's consider rare but for me it is:
left handed CZ 452 American 22lr. Have McMillian rimfire magnum varmint stock for it. I had to send it to McMillan to get it inlet for my left hand action.
