    So I have been looking at actions for the past few weeks. I settled on a defiance tenacity. I contacted them, and to my disappointment, they are about 37 weeks out. I figured screw it I'll go over my budget, spend a few extra bucks and get the deviant. And save for a barrel. NOPE! Same issue. Altus has barrled actions for deviant, but they are just too much. Been looking at terminus Apollo and can't find much on them any other suggestions? Not really feeling the bighorn origin.
     
    Alamo precision does a lot of builds on tenacity’s. You could call to see if you could buy just an action or get a barreled action?

    Also, Altus sells Tenacity barreled actions that are a bit less than their deviant barreled actions (maybe you already saw these?)

    I did see those. Never heard anything bad about Altus either. I kinda wanted to slap a criterion or shilen barrel on it. And have a barrled action for around $1200 looking for a SA with a 308 bolt face
     
    Supposedly Mack Bros will release more SS Evos in October(ish). They’re only $575 and a pretty nice action for the price.

    Brownells has a deviant in stock. Looks like it’s s/a std bolt face
