Looking at the Nosler site I see one can buy a RH M48 production rifle for $1875.
But to get a Left Hand rifle I'd have to buy a M48 Custom which cost $3875!
Seeing that really touched a sore spot.
When I was in the N.C. shop working for the AF, I think I could have programmed a LH action using mirror image and Manual Data Input on our old Cinncininatti Milacron controls. Starting with your RH program that is. I did a lot of that kind of stuff as aircraft most always have a Left and Right hand part. Same thing goes for a synthetic stock. That is the beauty of modern cutting tools, it makes things easy and economical. Of course I am assuming Nosler has that type of machine tool.
So please explain why it cost $2,000. more to get a LH Nosler rifle? From reading the descriptions I couldn't see that much difference.
