Hello gents this is my first thread here so show me some semblance of mercy please. I've followed Ted and ARC since around 2016 when I stumbled upon the Mausingfield and have lusted after one ever since however, with the CDG coming out I'm torn as to which would be the better option. I'd love the opinions of those who've not only used both but have likely sent more lead down range than I've drawn gasps of air.

I've chosen to stick with my Mausingfield actions. The fact I can get standard savage prefit barrels does save a little on barrels.
I like both - but - between the two - Mausingfield for me. 
Watch videos on YouTube of each being field stripped in case you are less than mechanical like I am.

I'd be going from a Stiller Predator long action I put together over the summer so either way I consider it a substantial upgrade.
My M5 Mausingfield is by far my favorite custom action and I’m looking at picking up a CDG. Guys that had both and kept the Maus, can you let me know why you ended up with the Mausingfield? Bolt lift? Smoothness? Prefits are available for both from great smiths out there so barrel availability is a tie for me.
I'm curious about this myself.
I'm sure other people will have different reasons, and some of mine are opinions that may be unfounded.
My Mousingfield has a claw, and I had no plans on running AW mags. The CDG has holes all over it that makes me think it'll plug up with fine dust/dirt. The CDG is heavier and has fat bolt that rides in the action with a groove in the side to keep it indexed with the ejector. The Mousingfield smaller diameter bolt that has lugs that run in raceways and feels like more solid. For hunting I think the Mousingfield will run in dirtier conditions then the CDG.
I did like the pivoting handle, but kept my Archimedes as well.
I'd say that's a possibilty. He was all about the Archimedes when it came out and now it's gone.
