Ted as a lefty myself I keep my eyes open. I have seen the Kimber of Oregon 84 in a plain 222 I believe twice. If you were willing to look and play around its pretty easy to score some sweet deals and I find as much fun in that as I do shooting them. But most recently I bought a left-hand savage weather warrior 16 in 223. I was able to sell the Leupold that came on it and clear the cost of the rifle and then some. There were other accessories to boot. Off to ER Shaw or Douglas for a custom barrel. (7mm Tcu) and I have another lightweight low recoil deer thumper for my kids sub $400
