Which one is that? I might be missing something but I only see the 737 and NBK on their product list.

.308 bf - Drop in 75 Degree Bolt For 737R, SA NBK and the SA Titan
Sorry you don't get a fancy picture. I will get on Derek Duncan for that! We plan on making these in the short action configurations first. They will eventually be available in the other bolt faces sizes but I wanted to get some out there in .308 (because I had a lot of match ammo I could test...

Considering the prices that you can sometimes get these for (like right now with a Presidents' Day sale) it makes it hard to not just buy one to play with.
How does it run? Can it keep up with the more expensive actions? Can't it be ran hard, like they need to be?
They were selling them separate for either the 737 or NBK, but I would imagine that you could order an action with it.
I see that. That's a pretty good option. I wonder if they'll just start making all of their actions with those instead. Seems like it'd be ideal.
I hope it's at least an option when ordering in the future. I'd like to try one out and see.
Have been thinking about doing something like a hunting rifle with parts made strictly in Montana. I know my brother in-law wants to do one like that too. Are there any stock manufacturers in Montana?
That was my original goal on my last build, but the closest I got was action and barrel McGowen/C6; I originally planned on using Proof, but they did not have the twist I wanted). I tried to get Proof's stocks, but they only used them on their rifles. I had no luck with made-in-Montana stocks.
I went back to my previous research and found https://www.ssplusstocks.com/
and https://canyoncreekgunstocks.com/display.asp?page=home
They do beautiful wood stocks, but it was not what I was looking for.
I built a rifle off a BAT Igniter action, two-lug with an integral recoil lug (It's Bad to the Bone). I looked at them all. I also build a rifle off a Terminus Apollo 3 Lug. It requires extra force to cam the bolt open, but it's also mighty sweet

I'm considering a ARC CdG for a 25 PRC build.

Ya it's definitely not about doing it at a match you're right there. I would never do that physically at a match unless it's absolutely necessary.
I have 3 Zeus actions and they're all for different things but all are technically QC. The QC is repeatable but if you're serious about competing just screw it on ahead of time and check zero( which you should do anyway).
I use the QC mostly to save space and money. I personally do not love having a bunch of rifles I have no time to use. That being said I have 6 different cartridges/ barrels I can choose from.
If you want 3 lug that's the way to go.
Otherwise, if you "have to"
shoot 2 lug stick with impact. They're made for PRS just like the Zeus.

Now ive seen more of these than most I'd guess. I hang around my buddies shop a lot and he's a dealer. I've seen 5 of them either fail to close properly every time( no barrel ) or the crappy nitride job wears off with just running the bolt several times. There are timing issues, QC isn't great, and honestly the design could be better overall.
They hit a price point but I'd rather save a few more bucks and just get a Zermatt Origin at that price. Much more reliable even tho no integrated lug and rail.
Super disappointing since I'm a 3 lug guy.
YMMV
