Who makes the best one, in that range, and who has the best prices?


Either the Bighorn Origin at $840 shipped directly from Zermatt Arms or Kelblys Atlas at $895 from

https://bulletcentral.com/product/kelbly-atlas-tactical-action/

The Origin is currently running at 3-4 weeks turnaround but should resume to 1-2 weeks once season demand is quenched in a month or two. I ordered an Origin in early May and it was ready to ship the day after they received my order. Also, if you do go with the Origin send them your trigger and have them time it to the action before they ship to you. They charge $50 for this service. The Triggertech's are nice, they should have a two stage trigger for release soon.
