SKLTN or Pierce?

I'm building a 7-6.5 PRCW as my new mountain rig. I'd like a lighter action but actually want the gun to finish a half pound heavier than the Christensen Classic II I've carried the last 10 years. I'm moving to Alaska so feeding has to be flawless in case of brown bear issue. Other than that I'm more performance driven, can you build a consistent sub .5" rifle on a SKLTN? I like them both but the SKLTN is pretty sexy resembling the Gunwerks actions? The Pierce has always had my interest because they are only 3 hours away in Michigan and I've heard they are very straight. Not that it has any bearing on the action, the heaviest 20" Bartlein CF barrel and Peak 44 Bastion will round out the major components.

Check out the Falkor LW7 if feeding is your primary concern, and they are super light as well. The first time I used one I kept double checking to make sure it picked up a round because it fed so insanely smooth. I have 3 of them now and still grin every time I push a round into the chamber.
