Bolt Action pistol?

I see a way for me to get a ultra compact LH action bolt action 300BLk fitted with a folding brace and suppressor.
 
Savage has made a similar left had action bolt action pistol in 22WMR for years. I really wish they made it in a RH action so I could put a folding brace on it. It would be even lighter than this. Perfect for a long hike small game hunt.
 
The fellows I know who shoot big bore pistol silhouette matches often use bolt action handguns, and many have the bolt handle on the left side so they can work the action and load with their left hand while maintaining their grip on the handgun with their right hand. It is a hoot watching some of them all sprawled out on the ground holding their head up with one hand and bracing their handgun against their leg. They do pretty well hitting targets at 200 yards.

That's interesting,, and not balanced at all.. A friend had a Lone Eagle I wanted. It's balanced pistol with a howitzer breach, that's a flame thrower in 7-08. The first time out I shot a 3.75" group at 100yrds.

Hand Cannon: Magnum Research Lone Eagle :: Guns.com

The powerful, single-shot Lone Eagle pistol from Magnum Research fires a .308 Winchester round capable of taking large game. Yet few know this rare hand cannon. Guns.com took it for a test run.

I’ve got the original style “center grip” xp-100 that is balanced very well. Chambered in .308 and will out shoot most rifles
 
Since this thread got resurrected...

I wouldn't think you want balanced. It's not for shooting off-hand. So, I would think muzzle heavy would be the way to go.
Of course, adding a brace may balance it out with a suppressor.

I've done that and it's great fun. And having to wear a blast shield on the leg if you shoot a revolver.
