Not a Savage?  :dunno: Lots of quality for the pricepoint there in my opinion.

Remington makes several good models.  Left hand 700 sps varmint in .243 is next on my list.

If you don't care about a long barrel Tikka makes a few lefty models.  My problem is finding a lefty with a 26" heavy barrel.  I'm pretty much stuck with Remington which is fine with me except for it not having a removable magazine.

i used to have a savage 112vlss in 22-250 but couldnt get it to shoot worth a crap, maybe one with the accutrigger might be better.

AR-15 just make sure you wear a face shield  :dunno:  :chuckle:
No people will tamely surrender their Liberties, nor can any be easily subdued, when knowledge is diffused and Virtue is preserved. On the Contrary, when People are universally ignorant, and debauched in their Manners, they will sink under their own weight without the Aid of foreign Invaders.

If the last Savage you had was a pre-Accutrigger, it may be worth trying a new one. They've really come a long ways in the last few years. I've had at least 6 in the last 5 years and all but 1 shot under .5" with handloads. The one gun that shot over .5" was an older 300 Win Mag what would still stay under 1".
Savage just has so many left handed options that they seem like a good fit.
