[QUOTE="camodave7, post: 2198523, member: 118707"] I shoot left handed and about 1981 I decided to see if Wally Hart would build me a lefty action. When he said he would I quickly changed my mind and ordered 2, a Plain and a 1A. When shooting off a bench it just makes sense to have the port on the opposite side from the bolt handle so I had him make them like that Those actions may or may not have been one offs, but they were the first lefties he ever made. When I returned to the world of Benchrest, not as a participant due to a variety of factors, one of the first things I looked at was the popular actions of the day. As my gunsmith friend told me once, "Dave I used to work to a tolerance of thousandths of an inch, today I work from tolerances of ten-thousandths". Those Bat actions are a marvel of modern engineering combined with art. [/QUOTE]
