What left handed .22lr?

[SuffolkStag]

I’m looking at getting a .22lr in left handed.

Quite like the look of the Bergara .22 B14r Carbon. Has anyone got any thoughts?

Any other decent options?

CZ452 if you can find one. Best rifle I ever sold, and wish I hadn't (they are worth a lot more over here than back in the UK believe it or not!)

Although saying that, the bolt travel of .22 is so short that being a true lefty is not quite as much of an advantage as it is with a CF rifle.

I can get one for sub £300 over here. There’s a few on Guntrader.
I’ve got a true left handed Dakota arms in 6.5creed so I’m used to a left handed bolt though

I wouldn't think twice about it. It's basically a scaled down M98 done right. I believe there are aftermarket triggers (although mine was perfectly good as it was) and there are great quality British made Sportsmatch rings available for sensible money that are specifically made for the CZ 13mm dovetail.

The only other .22 rifles that I have any time for are Martini action ones, but that's another story!

I've got a true left t1x in 22lr and love it, only things I've changed are the grip but I've done the same on my t3x and I've put a t3x standard pad on which I think is much nicer

It depends on what you want to do with the rifle and how much you want to spend. If you’re on a tight budget but want good accuracy then Savage has a lot of offerings in left hand. Others have mentioned Tikka and CZ. Both of those are about the same price here in the States and are a good step up from Savage in terms of cost but maybe not accuracy. Anschutz is a big step up from those in terms of cost, and at least a small step up in terms of accuracy depending on if you’re looking at target or sporting configurations. Don’t discount the used market. It’s virtually impossible to shoot out a 22 LR so there’s lots of good bargains out there that have many lifetimes of accuracy left in them.

Annie. Son has Walnut thumbhole. However not truely LH as if I remember correctly safety position is same as RH one as is bolt release catch.

Can get Anschutz 1727F in left hand stock and left hand action

Now you’re talking! Definitely top tier. But I made the mistake of actually pricing that exact setup out. And needless to say I ended up with a used Anschutz 14/16 in left hand. The Fortner action will have to wait until I’m retired.

They are certainly not cheap, and probably no more accurate, but they are very nice

So many temptations in life. My resistance grows weaker every day
