You may have trouble also with getting a barrel with an extension for a left hand bolt. I am dealing with a Stag 10L (my son's) in 6.5 Creedmoor. We are looking into putting a new a new barrel in it. There are not many making extensions for a left hand bolt. I talked to Precision Firearms and they were going to need the old barrel for the extension. My advice to you is that if you can live with it do a right hand build. It will be MUCH cheaper to build a right hand upper and fewer problems. A right hand extension will work with a left hand bolt but it will put extra wear on both because the hard edges. This Stag has also been a problem child since day one. I would stick to the .136 bolt face also but be prepared to run into few "kinks" to work out and an ample funds to work with.
