I got one of each. Too good to pass up.

The Nucleus has more features and has more of a custom look. The Barloc system also looks great. On the other hand the Bighorn has that classic 700 look with the no tools take down firing pin.

I'm torn honestly. I'm leaning towards the tool less features of the Bighorn, but the Nucleus looks fantastic. I personally don't have any use for the switch barrel features.

Are we sure that the origin has the tooless take down? It doesn't state that anywhere and I wondered if that's a feature that was left behind in the cost savings. I emailed them but I assume they're at shot and I haven't heard back unfortunately.
