Looking for an AI AXMC. Only problem is I need it in left hand. Are there any options aside from buying used? Called Mile High and they said that was the only option. Any way to special order them?

No way to order them. I would be patient and keep an eye on the PX. I struggled with buying one when they were available but due to the lack of LH conversion kits and due to the lack of ranges with distances > 1,000 yards, I never did. I bought an AI AT and never looked back. Completely happy with the rifle and my decision.

Fast forward and now MHS is selling LH AXMC bolt bodies consistent with the 308 family. Now I wanted an AXMC. None to be found. About a week later, someone put a NIB LH AXMC in 338 LM for sale on the PX. We reached a deal and now it is in my possession. To be honest, I would have bought it even used, provided it was in good shape. For me it was the perfect buy as I want something capable of shooting 300 NM (same bolt as 338 LM). All I now need is the new AXSR magazine that fits the AXMC and will allow me to load the 308 bolt face cartridge family. I may even buy the 300 win mag bolt if it is ever released.
