One and Done Action.

[WildBoose]

Tikkas are great, and I know we all love em…but this isn’t the thread for them.
What is/would be your 1 and done action.
20in 7saum build…Top Tier stuff (when my wife gives me the appropriate allowance)

Impact Precision
Kelbys
Zermatt
Defiance
Bat
Borden
Etc…..

Does it come down to the Ford/Chevy/Toyota….Sage/Winston/Loomis/Scott debate?

 

[Cascade_Sherpa]

Defiance Ruckus or Bat Vesper

 

[nm.otter]

Sako 90 in a custom stock.

 

[Joshuajosh]

I love my zermatt origin

 

[bwood1]

Raven

 

[rbenson4]

Mack Brothers Element for me

 

[hand skills]

Win Mod 70 with old style trigger?

Kelbly is smooth, I love the mechanical ejector but my "One and Done" does NOT include a Remington 'style' trigger and safety.

For a true 'One and Done', maybe Blaser K95

Personally, and at this stage in life, I'd rather have a few Tikkas

 

[huntsman22]

zermatt Ti3......

 

[hereinaz]

For the top action companies it is Ford/Chevy and pick your features.

I like my Nucleus or the Coup de Grace from ARC. My nucleus has been a great action for my 7 SS.

 

[eoperator]

Nanook
Vesper
Zermatt

The only reason I'm not building on a Tikka is to save some ounces. In which case pierce skele ti or pure skltn.

I’ve got a couple 7 SAUMs and I’ve thought about this question. I haven’t yet done the build you’re describing, but I’d select a mid-length action with a magazine length around 3.2”. Personally, I’m leaning towards the Borden Ridgeline, but there are a number of quality mid-length actions available.

 

[JohnJohnson]

I chose a Lone Peak Fuzion for my one and done. But it's hard to make a bad choice. ARC CDG, Impact, Terminus Zeus, etc are all great.

 

[waspocrew]

Zermatt TL3 or Origin offer a lot of flexibility. I’ve been happy with mine.

 

[tak]

Can't go wrong with an impact.
I also have a defiance Anti X, but in a long action.
For a 7 saum hunting rifle, I'd do a medium Impact NBK hands down.

AKA you don't actually want anyone's answer if it doesn't fit your preference.

Impact Precision
Kelbys
Zermatt
Defiance
Bat
Borden
Ect…..

Does it come down to the Ford/Chevy/Toyota

No, I take Toyotas. You said no Toyotas allowed. I guess Fords or Chevy's would be Rugers and Brownings, which I'm guessing you also don't want. You are asking about Jags, Cadillacs, Land Rovers, Maseratis, and Alfa Romeos.

Get what makes you happy. Tikkas do it for me.

None of those actions are compatible with triggers I trust.

In order of coolness:

1) KRG SOTIC

2) Procision Raven

3) Sako 90

4) Nitrided Tikka with DLC'd bolt

5) Gunwerks Endex/Nexus

Also ... Scott ... 9'5wt ... but the radian not the centric ;-)

Honorable mention to the AI AT-X Mil which would be awful as a field gun but certainly meets your "specialness" criteria.

I've switched over to primarily Terminus Zeus actions for target rifles but would use one for a hunting rifle if I wanted a custom hunting rig.

Tikka, Tikka, Tikka…..we get it. They are great, I love them, you love them, everybody loves them!
I was wanting a different opinion tho and took preventative measures to make sure the answers weren’t all Tikkas.
Don’t like it??? Cool, move along.
