Which action would u guys choose for a hunting build?

Already got my allterra stock ordered and bartlein carbon.
Action needs to be LA

Was considering kratos lite / lone peak / defiance antix

Looking for more input. Gonna run it bdl btw. Mahalo!
 
Define lightweight? I just built what to me is a lightweight rifle that came in under 6lbs for the rifle only. I used a Defiance Rebel action and a Bart CF barrel. If you order it right the Rebel is only a few ozs more than the Anti or AntiX.

Goal weight is 7-8lbs fully ready to hunt. Which will be about 2-3lbs lighter than my current rig on a mausingfield.
 
For those running the titanium actions, any fears of wear over the years? Im not one who only shoots 50rds a year, we routinely go out to the mountains.

I remember chad dixon talking about the issues with titanium being a boiled egg. So thats my main worry with the LP. Hes built most of my rifles and they been top notch.

If you decide to go with a stainless action the Rebel could work if you order it with the right set-up.
