Curtis Vector vs Bighorn Origin vs ARC Nucleus

[sleeplz]

Anyone know which has the smoothest bolt throw and best features? I have no idea which to get as they all seem to be solid.

Have only handled the Curtis but it is SMOOTH!!! That's the one I'm saving my money for!

Looked on curtis' website and didn't see pricing info, just "coming soon". Has pricing been announced for the vector yet?

The curtis custom Axiom is a more apples to apples comparison. The Vector is going to be a more expensive integrated lug action. I was really looking at the curtis till the nucleus was announced. thats what i went with.

The Vector will be on a whole other level from the two actions mentioned. The vector will have an integral lug and a quick change barrel system. As well as many other features which you'll have to wait for the official announcement for. The Vector will be very hard to beat.

Outside of the actual people working on the individual receivers at Bighorn and ARC, I don't think anyone has the answer to the OP's question today.
On Tuesdya next week, they will.

Does the vector accept savage barrels, or just their propriatry barrel change system?

Does the vector accept savage barrels, or just their propriatry barrel change system?

There is a dedicated Vector thread with video that contains a bunch of info on it.

Short answer is no, savage won't work.

To answer the actual question asked, I’ve found every Bighorn I’ve ever touched hasn’t been nearly as smooth as other custom actions like Curtis Customs, Impacts, Surgeon, Badger, Tempest etc. they have all felt “gritty” to me. Obviously I’m not sure how the Origin will feel but if that’s all I had to go on, I’d go with the ARC action.

The Vector is a $1400 action. It would be more fair to compare it to the ARC Mausingfield and BH TL3.
