Nice gun, you need to buy it. 
I would like to have one of the stocks for these.
Yes. You may have to reverse the cheek riser hardware to move the knob to the left side. . I have the hells canyon version in 280AI and it is a shooter. I would not hesitate to buy another.
With no thumbhole it should work fine. There may be a palm swell oriented toward RH shooter but I don't think it is too much for a lefty. They offer a ton of cartridges- which one?
Anyone ever see one of these shocks for sale?
I might like to have one for my Hells Canyon 7mag

I have one I can sell.
I bought a carbon fiber stock for mine.
Never been hunted with, but I did add a Spartan Precision (gunsmith) bopod adaptor to it.
Browning Ovix camo.
Abosulutely love the stock but trying to lighten it up a bit as I run a heavy optics system and accessories.

How much would something like that cost??
You can pm me if you want to

Ran one in 6.5 CM in 2020 as my first foray into the world of manbuns. Ended up in a McMillan stock, and is now waiting for a new barrel. I like the action well enough (I shot a lot of A-Bolts in the past), and the barrel was pretty decent for a factory rifle, but the stock wasn't great.
If you normally run a right handed action there's nothing about it that makes it worse than any other factory stock, shouldn't be an issue for you.
It wasn't great, very plasticky and flexible. The McMillan was a big upgrade, with no bedding it shot the same as the factory stock, and felt much more solid. This was a 6.5CM shooting 142gn Sierras, that shouldn't be causing any flex IMO.

I'd offer mail you mine if I can find it, but it's a short action

Seeing as how mine was a Max LR also, I can only imagine how terrible the standard stock must be.
Which is odd because my A-Bolt Stalkers are very stiff, moreso than the Max LR I have.
