Tennon for impact and lone peak

There are people that do it, but some of the earlier lone peak stuff has varying head spaces. You may want to contact lone peak, or some of the more prominent smiths that build off them just to make sure yours will head space correctly. For example, I built a hunting rifle off a lone peak fuzion last year, and Travis at TS Customs requested that I send my action in due to the serial number being below a certain number. I can't remember off the top of my head what serial number (believe it was in the 300's) where the tolerances allowed prefit type barrels.
It would be a brand new action that I would order now. Proof has prefits for impacts and would like to get one if it fits a new lone peak.
TS Customs (among others), can spin you up a shouldered prefit for the LP Fuzion. Great work and quick turnaround times.
Buy a barrel blank from a store of your choosing (Bugholes has excellent selection and keeps a lot in stock) and drop ship it to him, or see if he has a blank to your liking in stock.
That's what I would do (and have done), always happy with the results.

I can get a better deal through proof so I want to go that route. Just want to make sure an impact barrel will headspace ok on a fuzion.
That’s gonna be a no from me dawg.
realistically though, how is it worth getting the action you want and then trying to shoehorn a barrel from a different action on to it? Seems pretty contrarian to me.

Because proof offers prefits For impacts on experticity for a ridiculously low price. If one fits I will buy it, if it doesn’t fit Then I will buy a lone peak prefit elsewhere.
lone peaks are very under rated. People who have actually cycled them say they have the lightest bolt lift and smoothest cycle. But all the impact fan boys can love on their impacts, they are an outstanding action as well. I just liked the feel of the lone peak better.

Talked to a smith about this same question when I was considering LP vs Impact. Basically said the cone angle is different and I would have less supported case if I used an impact prefit on a lone peak. I decided not worth it and just went with the Impact. Perfectly happy with it.
