So I am looking at custom actions and just curious what you guys run. Right now I have a kelbly atlas tactical and a Curtis axiom. I am trying to decide on another action and looking to stick around $1100 or so I like the ones I have just wondering what’s better

Realistically speaking I don't think you can buy a bad action now days, machining technology and processing has come a really long way and it comes down to what one prefers aesthetically or the minor feature differences between all the manufacturers.
I run a Defiance and I love it, they're great people deal with as they make an outstanding product and stay behind it.
Impact seems to be taking the tactical match world by storm and for good reason, you also have Curtis, Surgeon, Terminus, ARC and the list goes on.
Both have built in recoil lugs and scope base. Both are machined very well. Smooth bolt operation, attention to detail. Both are on rifles that shoot 1/4-1/2 MOA. Both came highly recommended by shooters I respect.
They run the best in all conditions. Clean dirty dry oiled doesn't matter. Both are top notch people.
I like my Lone Peak Fuzions quite a bit. Because Brian and Mike are awesome guys and Travis Stevens swears by them and is also an awesome guy to deal with. After purchase support is a big deal to me. In purchasing a PDC Custom chassis, Craig informed me the inlet for his chassis wouldn’t work with my Fuzion. He sent an email over to LP on a Sunday night and Brian responded the same night with the action prints so that the inlet could be modified.
Besides all that the action just fucking runs. I’m sure everyone knows what I mean by that. It’s like cycling perfection. Not to say it’s better than actions A, B, and C. They check my boxes.

I have a Surgeon 591. I ran it last weekend at the Bighorn Steel Classic. Day one was fucking horrible. It snowed the first few hours and the mud was absolutely everywhere thereafter.
After day 1, threw it in the case until day 2. No cleaning.
180 rounds total and it never missed a beat.

I have to wonder if there is really any difference my bighorn tl3 i like it but after trying someone defiance it was equally nice to operate so is a bolt just a bolt till you spend the money on it . or is there any real difference my mosin bolt operates the same way but being so old its smooth like melted butter the bighorn is just as smooth and its new so I am pretty sure which ever you decide to get you should be happy with good luck .
