I'm looking for an all purpose medium to big game stainless steel rifle in a left handed action. There are precious few manufacturers catering to the southpaw shooting crowd. Especially in stainless.
I've read that the Tikka has "cheapish" components, but is an accurate rifle. I've also read that the Ruger Hawkeye is built like a tank but, like Ruger rifles, accuracy is hit or miss.
I'll be heading to the 4000 table Wannamacher show in a couple of weeks and would like to know what to look for. Maybe some members of this forum have had experience with the above choices?
All the above will be preempted if I stumble onto a Remington 700 in stainless in 30-06 or 270 caliber in a left handed action. Several months ago there were three for sale on gunbroker, but while I was pondering ............
