Gents,
Has anyone seen any new LH rifles for this year?
I did see savage released a magpul scout in LH and I kinda like the look, especially in 308
What have you seen?

I also saw the Savage scout and am intrigued. I'm wondering what it will end up weighting. I think it will be like the Ruger Gunsite Scout rifles.....a neat firearm, but about 2 lbs heavier than it needs to be. Just my opinion.

I suspect if any will be announced, we'll see them at SHOT

Quite interesting for fierce,
I personally won't buy anything made in Utah, as the entire state is ran by the mormon cult.

Something different........17 or 22 Hornet........or go big like a 375 Ruger, 375 H&H, etc.
My biggest fear is when I die my wife will sell my guns for what I told her they cost.

I have not tried the CA line of rifles. I’ve personally know of 2 gentleman who had accuracy issues from theirs. I bought a RH rouge in 7prc to try and was very impressed. So much so that the RH rouge is up for sale to be replaced with a CT rouge in 7prc.

Only place i could find one in stock was EuroOptics. The Fierce Rogue looks interesting. Maybe one day we’ll get lucky and Seekins will go lefty..

Those have been out since September. Winchester never really announced them, they just appeared on the site and were already at distributors. I expect they will add the 400 Legend to that model at SHOT along with all the 20+ models now available in 350 Legend I bought a Hunter 350 for $679. Already had the Cerakote redone locally because I was not a fan of the FDE permacote they use.

So u monitor the other states for Muslims, Non-Christian, Pagan etc sellers and don't buy from them?

I have a LH XPR 6.8 Western. Shoots MOA w/165 Accubonds. I couldn't get the heavier 170/175 to chamber. Actually,it wasn't even close. All factory ammo. I also have a LH Fierce Edge CT, 300 WM. All stainless. Doesn't like 150's but is OMG accurate w/180's. Incidentally, they're made in Canada. Nice rifles. Most complaints surrounding Fierce has to do w/ customer service, or lack of it. Rifles promised deliveries are late etc. I bought mine used (barely). It's well made ,accurate and relatively light. I like it.

Winchester put an 11/16x24 thread on it and uses a 450 brake for the 350. Kinda tells me they had the 400 planned for it all along. Fortunately they also include a properly contoured thread cap

I read that and thought it odd or a misprint. Is there enough of a shoulder for a suppressor to seat against?

They belled up the end of the barrel. No need to for the 6.8 or 350, so they must have been planning ahead. Barrel O.D. is .850" at threads
6.8 is 9/16x24 and does not appear to be belled up like the 350

Light and very accurate with hand loaded 175 ELD’s. It is a RH but I had the itch to try one and was very impressed with it. It’s currently going up for sale to be replaced with a LH version. I’m OK if it takes some time to receive it. I have a few other LH rifles to use if needed.

Anyone making a LH .375 Ruger with a good synthetic stock? Something that would work in Alaska? i.e. Stainless?

Good to see more and more lefty options… when I was growing up they were just a few… so I always shot lever guns. Bolts were just single shot for me in rt hand.
