Left-hand rimfire rifles?

I currently own a Savage 93GL. It's a bolt-action rifle chambered in .22wmr. I love it as it suits my Southpaw-ness. Do any other manufacturers make a left-handed rimfire (either .22 or .22 Magnum)?? Doesn't matter if it's an semi or bolt-action.

Ruger 10/22L is a southpaw's .22 auto if you can fin one they were discontuniued in 91, remington makes a bolt and i belive the 567(i think) in LH configuration, also henry makes a little .22 lever gun in both .22LR and .22 WIN MAG and even though it ejects across a leftys field of view its far for ward enought that it wouldnet be too much of a problem, and the pump Rossis and Henry's are bottom ejection i think so they would work for both.
I shoot right hand with rifle and scatter gun, though the wierd thing is when i shoot lefthanded with my .22 singel shot springfield or any of my center fire bolt guns i shoot slower, but more accuratly, maybe becuase i have to focus more on aiming or maybe becuse my stong hand is supporting the gun. i shoot pistol equaly well left or right handed. i broke my right arm twice once when i was 15 (dirtbike...showin off) and again when i was 18 (farm accident) so i learend how to work and write left handed. im not quite ambdextous but close.

Hey man, I see the 77/22's but not in a left-hand configuration, only a right-hand. I do however see left-hand 77's but they're for larger calibers, unless I'm mistaken.

Could a left hand 77/22 be a discontinued model?

quite possible, most gun companys have very few LH rifles.
