I’d recommend asking yourself exactly what you want, then do some searching on this site.
The search button is your friend.
And this should be in the Bear Pit lol
May as well ask what the best car ever made is, or what’s the best color, or reticle etc etc.
Search button dude. And Google.

I don't want to be rude but I think it needs to be said:
I don't think there's a "Best" one these days. There are pro/cons for each custom out there but pretty much every custom on the market feels very good or downright awesome, every one is plenty capable of being true and accurate, etc
If you want a very light bolt lift then you're likely going to want a 2 lug action and probably a classic 90 degree throw more than a 75, though I will remind folks that the way a factory TIkka feels has been a reference point for a LOT of customs the last 3 decades even though it's a 70 deg throw and it's not a "custom" action.
Ignition consistency is pretty well understood as is headspace and thread fit consistency.
If you check out the list of actions on our website it's a pretty comprehensive list of stuff where you don't have to worry, you're going to get a very nice action.

I totally agree, we have plethora of best choices depending on your preferences. I am a die hard Impact shooter, but for this my use case drove a different direction. What I think is important, another will decry as being meaningless. And guess what, with a few exceptions we will both be right.I don't want to be rude but I think it needs to be said:

My current 22cm is on a bat igniter, very nice action for $1100. Are there any particulars you're after? Integral lug/rail? Lightweight? Control round feed?
I have many different brands of customs and currently my favorite is the American Rifle Company Coup De Grace.
No, Tikka does not, it's a heavier lift due to its 70° cocking angle VS the 90° over traditional rem700 style actions. I've had impact and still have a few fuzion actions. I prefer the LP over impact myself.
I made my tikka feel lighter than my origin by putting a longer bolt handle and knob on it. But I'm sure a lone peak or impact would feel even better with the right handle
Of course lift forces will be less with a longer lever, physics. Open a kelbly atlas tac. With that long ass handle their bolt lift is effortless!
I agree with @Hennig, I sold my impact cuz I couldn't stand the hitch when opening and closing the impact. Run it fast it's much less pronounced, but it feels like a multi stage cocking cam if you run em slow. Prob why I'll never own another.
And yes, my trigger was properly timed......
That's the nice thing about all the options available! Everyone has a different preference.
Exactly opinions are like assholes everyone has one and the all stink to some degree.
