Thanks but it appears there are still issues for some and they haven’t done much testing with them yet. This action is nice with a Jewell/ Remmy triggers but haven’t read much success with any other triggers or it’s hit and miss, and that’s a big issue for me I’ll just keep running my Jewell in mine for now.
Let me know what issues you are having (PM if you want). I've had about every trigger issue with my Tempest and finally have it running smooth with most of my triggers (to include TT Diamond and Pro). The Diamond is awesome. I may be able to shed light on something you haven't tried. Also, George is super nice and is crazy smart. He ultimately had to diagnosis my problem and he was spot on.
Thanks for the response Will. So the Tempest has a lighter bolt lift than the AI? I played with an AI the other week. I liked it but don't really have a use for the switch barrel system and I prefer traditional stocks.
I’ve heard the same about the M2013 but haven’t had the opportunity to try one out to compare.
One other question: Can a single Tempest action be purchased with and run both a short magnum and standard 0.470 boltface bolts?

I shouldn't have asked this question, it's going to lead to my wife killing me...

Np bud, yup lighter than the AI. It's still my favorite 3-lug, but i've also not come across an action as smooth as my personal tempest. Granted mine was bare, then polished, and DLCd. I've yet to feel an action comes close to it truthfully. That's from a Bighorn, Surgeon, BAT tactical, Deviant, and AI. I want to handle a Impact just because they're the latest craze. It's hard to shy away from the feeling of my Tempest though when it comes to shooting competition.
I think i've been lucky in that regard. I've not felt another tempest except mine but it seems most stray away from them now. Least the circles that i keep up with in the PRS community. I've not really had a single problem out of the action function wise. Though i remember Shane's shroud kept coming undone in matches and would cost him the match, so he switched to an Axiom.
I've not handled a nitrided one.

Np bud. I'm the same way i feel like a swept bolt handle is a must for a 3-lug. Though obviously lots don't but i feel like i would hate it if the bolt started in the same position as a 90 degree two lug and stopped nearly half way. Though lots love it. I'm surprised Chase hasn't offered a swept handle on his actions yet.
