Well I’m a Tikka fan so I would tell you to grab a Tikka as far as value for money goes they are a great gun which can be kept stock or built upon. I’ve owned savage, Christensen arms, tikka and a custom action. Also had a browning but the stock just didn’t fit me right. I’d love to own a Blaser one day in lefty just because all my rifles are switchbarrels and that’s one rifle that does it great from factory.
However the options I can think of in factory bolt guns are:
Tikka - multiple models
Savage - multiple models
Browning - not everything and likely special order.
Remington - you can find them if you dig.
Ruger - some models
Winchester - the xpr is not a lefty gun
Weatherby - for the most part select models.
Christensen arms - Mesa and ridgeline models I believe.
CZ - makes lefty Rimfire not sure about Centre fire these days.
Blaser - makes lefties as well (my dream switchbarrel rifle) but they are costly.
Zastava - some models if you can find them
An if you want to go custom you can most action makers do at least one model in a lefty.
Hard to narrow down without a budget. As most of those can be found with a 22-24” barrel in a 30 cal. If you know what stocks fit you well even better. I found tikkas to fit me well and just been sticking with them for the most part but I am tempted to try others. My Christensen arms has to go in for accuracy and warranty work almost right away from new. My savage took a little polishing and stock work but became pleasant to shoot and my buddy bought it to match his 243.
Cheers,
B

Ruger, Rem, Tikka, Browning, Savage, CZ are the main ones to look at for LH actions, there’s a couple others I’m forgetting.

If you can find one, a older LH carl gustaf are really nice. I have one that was modified from a 30-06 to 300 win mag. Really smooth cycling bolt.
