Bighorn Origin / WTO Switchlug Compatibility

[backwatch]

Is the switchlug compatible with the origin? I like the interchangeable bolt heads being all the calibers I want would be a different bolt head. Anything else I should look at?

 

[b6graham]

yes but you need the different rail from bighorn

any reason you cant just torque on and off?

Didn’t know that you could do that. Prefits I assume? Still pretty new to all this

Prefits are available for that action and a simple and economical way to go.

unless you wanna switch barrels at the range.

shouldered prefits. torque and go. done. easy

there are benefits to the switchlug though

For the new guy- The benefit being that its only a small wrench for the switchlug with a small torque wrench maybe instead of larger tools such as a barrel vice and action wrench for a normal shouldered prefit?
