I've been really been enjoying my HTI's ability to quickly and easily swap barrels while retaining zero - without having to fuck with vices or big torque wrenches. Huge QoL improvement (for lazy people like myself). What other rifles or actions have the same level of ease and repeatability / return to zero capability when swapping barrels? I've heard the AI lineup (like the AXSR), Terminus Zeus action, and maybe the Cadex Kraken (which they claim is more repeatable but needs a larger tool) are all in that same league, am I missing any other stand out options? Are any significantly better at retaining zero between barrel swaps than the others?

I will say this is where AI does indeed have the best system. Every other attempt is half ass attempt to copy it. I have an atx with 3 barrels, barrel changes require the least amount of effort about anything on that rifle!
AI with the Quickloc, DTA, Barrett, Sig SSG3000 / Sauer 200STR
The only one I don’t have 1st hand experience with testing return to zero & repeatability is Barrett. Of those mentioned above they are all equally as repeatable and extremely accurate. I personally think DTA has the best design (for the barrel retention / change system).
