Stolle Atlas & Axiom MPA question.

[kwelhand]

I've MPA 6.5PRC w/ Axiom action and also MPA 6.5 Creedmoor w/ Stolle Atlas action.
I brought both of them used (both in like-new condition) but not familiar w/ either actions.

Does anyone know or experience between Atlas & Axiom actions?
Might be a dumb question but either one is better than the others?
Which one is a more proven or refined design?
I searched the net and couldn't really find the direct comparison between two actions.

How do you like the Kelbly? Prefer one over the other? Nice looking

I don’t see any major difference.
The Axiom handle has a little more shorter throw but they’re both smooth.
I like the look of extreme spiral grooves on the Kelby bolt

The Axiom has a 60deg bolt throw, and the Kelblys is 90. The kelblys has a mechanical ejector, and a trigger hanger.

Both good actions. I’ve owned a Kelblys in the past and wouldn’t hesitate to own another.

Thanks for sharing your experience.
I love the 60-degree short throw but it seems like Kelbly's is a tiny bit smoother.
