Which action in 2024?

I have to decide on a mount for my optic now.. for traditional stock setups are you guys going woth rings or with uni mounts? For my lpvo on ar of course I have Badger mounts, but it's been a while since I built a rifle and back then it was pretty much rings or larue mounts.

You can use either. Good rings will hold fine but some like to use one piece mounts.
 
One piece adds weigh, but in my mind is easier to set up ( neither is brain surgery). I used to use rings, but recently have been in the one piece state of mind.
 
I was impressed enough with the CDG/Foundation combination to plop down msrp on both a new CDG and samson and wait an estimated 6 months for them to be built and shipped to me so I can screw them together and shoot it.
foundation makes nice target stocks
American rifle makes nice actions...
 
BAT hammerhead is very appealing to me on paper but I'd have a hard time spending that much extra over a lone peak Fuzion.
 
when the bolt is open, does the zeus have a lug on the 6 o clock for stripping rounds out of the mag?
Stole this off of someone's sale post that google turned up, the odd lug is pointed up instead of down to keep the default rem mag presentation height in the action it appears.

If you are asking in terms of aw mag capability I would be skeptical

I really like my Zeus, but can’t get it to feed reliably with AWs. First 4-5 rounds are fine, then the wheels fall off. Messed with lips etc a bit, but yeah, wasn’t worth the headache in the end. Multiple chassis and adjustable latches etc, just no bueno.

maybe I'm stupid or gullible idk, but the 6 o clock lug made me buy an AX and now order a CDG. I just really like an action that feeds well from AW mags apparently.
