Bighorn Arms TL3 actions are the next generation of products from the superb Bighorn Arms lineup. The original TL actions set the standard in custom rifle actions for repeatability, ease of use by the gunsmiths, and demonstrated class leading accuracy. The floating bolt heads allow easy cartridge size swap and multi-caliber use in a single receiver for a versatile "do it all" rifle.
Following the original TL came the TL2 action, which featured an integral recoil lug, pinned scope rail, additional tang options, and a Remington 700 footprint for use in standard-inlet stocks and chassis.
Beginning as an evolution of the TL2, the TL3 action retains the ultra-repeatable, beautifully machined quality that shooters became accustomed to with the earlier TL and TL2 versions. In addition to this, the TL3 also comes with the added benefits of:
1. Controlled Feed
2. Mechanical Ejection
3. Pinned 20 MOA Picatinney Rail
4. Medium Tang
5. Competition Bolt Knob
6. Wider Ejection Port
7. Same Bighorn Arms Floating Bolt head capability of switching calibers
8. Bayonet Style Bolt Shroud for easy take down
9. AW Magazine Cut to run AICS or AW magazines.
10. DLC coated receiver.

Great action, plus altus is a one stop shop
This is my 2nd TL3, went to the NLR shoot in Nebraska in May of 19, and compared this against Impact and the Fuzion. I went with the TL3 DLC because of the control feed. The Impact and Fuzion are crazy smooth, but when the wind picked up (from 20mph to about 40mph) a couple of the other receivers failed, and the TL3 just kept shooting. I shoot a 6BR and it just works. Nothing fancy, it just works...I do have the SS version, and it is not as smooth as the DLC action. Lucas gun grease makes both actions almost as smooth as the other 2 actions. Altus was great do business with, and will be sending more business their way. They offered the Bighorn action bar, and that’s what closed the deal with me. If you do get this action, and run a shouldered prefit, it makes a world of difference. The standard remmy action bar does not work with the TL3 because of the way the ejection is set up. I took mine apart on my SS TL3 to make it work. One last thing, the bolt knobs and the knurled bolt knob. I thunked it came with the smooth one, but I do like it.

Great action
Very solid action. Well machined. Bolt runs smooth. My trigger dropped right in. It did come with the trigger pins. You won't be disappointed.
