Terminus action and Curtis action

[Booney]

I bought a terminus action last year. Got three barrels made up for it. Love it this black Friday I bought a Curtis action and it also looks great. I thought just for looks purpose. I put one of my terminus barrels on my Curtis action and was surprised that it was timed perfectly. That got me thinking I wonder how close the bolts are. Does anyone know if you could run a terminus bolt or a Curtis bolt in vice versa action. I put both bolts in the other action they both cycle and fill just like the other.
Just wondering if anyone knew why this would be a bad idea or if possible

Well Joel left Curtis and started Terminus. He started up Terminus because he wanted to make some changes/improvements. Give him a call or email him and ask. No one would know the differences better than him

I used to build on Curtis actions before Joel Russo left Curtis. The actions were (and still are) his brainchild and he was the man behind customer service and technical questions at Curtis. Joel was the driving force. He left and founded Terminus, so I started building on Terminus. The actions are quite similar, but there are improvements to the Terminus. Joel could elaborate, and he's the kind of dude that will pick up the phone and talk to you. Even if the actions weren't (IMO) the best in the world, I'd still build on Terminus for the sole reason that Joel Russo is good (great) people. To your question, my suggestion would be DO NOT swap bolts between the two unless Joel says otherwise.
