Anyone running multiple Zeus actions? What was your deciding factor in having more than 1? I have a Zeus Qc and am in the market for a second action but nothing looks quite as appealing as a second Zeus.

I have a Zeus SA QC (.470 bolt face for Dasher/Creedmoor/.308/GT) and a Zeus 338LM LA non-QC (.585 bolt face). Deciding factor to get a second Zeus was its slick 60° bolt throw on a three lug with its smooth nitrided finish. Impact 737R was obtained before Terminus came out. Love that action too, nothing bad to say about it, and would have no issues buying another. The QC thing is something, like reticles, that is a personal choice. I personally love the Zeus QC functionality. Terminus' barrel changing modality has not shifted any points of impact on rebarreling pre-fits on shots out to 1100 yards in my own experience. I will most likely get another Zeus LA with a .540 bolt face for 7rsaum as the appropriate Impact 787R tends to be out of stock wherever I happen to look.

Ok, I gotta ask. Has anyone gotten a 338 lapua in a QC barrel? Already talked to Joel he recommended full thread torque on. I would agree. But i am curious if anyone has done a qc 338 lapua. If so, what are your experiences with it?

Someone mentioned to me that my bolt bounces excessively when dry firing. Is that normal?

I’m running a TT diamond if that makes a difference.

Best to ask Joel Russo of Terminus. Mine does not when I am dry fire practicing using the D.F.A.T Kit (Dryfire, Focus, Adapter Training) using the same trigger indoors on a wall poster.

Any chance someone in the know could post a video of what it’s supposed to look like and a video of excessive bounce? I’ve got a trigger tech diamond and thought terminus were timed for these 🤷🏼‍♂️ I’ve literally never timed a trigger though so I don’t know anything.

Per Joel

The bounce is perfectly normal. It’s caused by the abrupt stop of the firing pin dry fire collar coming in contact with the dry collar stop inside the bolt. You won’t see it jump when the firing pin strikes a primer because the primer absorbs a significant amount of the energy.
