I don't particularly care for the aesthetics of the stock bolt handle options on the anTi-X. Anyone find something else that works? Show me the options please.

Yeah, I saw those. Have two of them already. Just was hoping to find something with more of a skeletized look and a knob w/character rather than all the "round" look...

I put the hollow Teardrop on mine. Very happy with it.
Has anyone weighed them? I'm probably splitting hairs, but just curious.

The tear drop is a smidge heavier not much!!
Thanks. It is my understanding there were interference issues on some earlier Anti-X actions. I believe they redesigned the bolt handle. I guess I will need to call Defiance to make sure I will not run into issues.
That's about the nicest looking one of them all. Just wish a machinist somewhere would come up with a flatter looking handle that's skeletized and a cooler looking knob... Oh well.

It was $45 or so to my door.
Get one and shape it the way you want might take an hour...
I was going to cut a shell casing and fit into the anti handle. I didn't like the big opening on the bottom.

The handle is still very thin and round. Not much to shape from...
My action is sitting at the GS. I haven't even seen it yet. It was nitrided at Defiance so I'm not sure if really makes sense to go through the hassle to order and nitride the bolt handle. Oh well, I guess I can leave it for future update.

IMHO, It's the worst designed custom action out there for a hunting build. Had one, used it one hunt, removed it and sold it.
