I came to the conclusion that I needed an extended bolt handle on my 110 left handed 30-06. I searched Google and looked at half a dozen sites with handles out of stock and prices from somewhat reasonable to much more.
This is what I found on eBay.....

I bit and was offered a number of different bolt knobs In a variety of finishes. They range in length of 2" down to 1.75"ish, in the white, anodized, and powder coated. I looked the company up and found that they were new to the bolt handle game. I'd bet if you contacted them they'd have some options for you. Here's what I've been playing with-I mean, evaluating....

Sorry for the low quality pic's...iPad.
Observations:
Bolt handle swap is EASY! 20 seconds with an Allen wrench. For bench shooting, the longer bolt handle is very nice, works great with gloves. I'll use the shorter one when I carry in the field.
The extruded ribs on the bolt handle are o-rings in milled channels, I liked them, but you can remove them.
I liked the black anodized finished on the aluminum.
If you've been thinking about getting an extended bolt handle, search around, ask some questions, don't fear the Allen wrench.
