I’ve got the CRF side of things narrowed down to the BH Origin, can’t justify a SL3 or TL3 since I’m just looking for a LH short action and can do without the integral lug for $400 cheaper (also decided on it over the Nucleus).

This will be a non-dangerous game hunting and occasional target shooting rifle in 6.5 creedmore so CRF isn’t a must and I’ve read that the Lone Peak actions have incredible “feel”. Not sure if I can justify the ~$400 more for it, but I’m willing to go PF if the quality and feel of the action that much better (also not that interested in most of the other custom PF actions).

Wanted to check before I ordered the Origin....
 
After having used a TL3 and Lone Peak, i can say the Lone Peak was noticeably smoother and harder to bind. It also had a SLIGHTLY lighter bolt lift. Im not sure how the Origin's lift compares to the TL3 but im assuming they are similair.

To me, the only reason to get the TL3 would be if you wa t the interchangeable bolt heads and CRF. The only reason to get the Origin is if you want the lower price and dont mind losing the integral parts. If none of those reasons apply to you, Lone Peak and Impact Precision are my top 2.

I am thinking about it along those lines as well, thanks for the comparison
