Zermatt Origin uses Savage barrel threads. If you have an action wrench that fits a Savage front ring, it works with M700 and its clones as well. No extra tools needed but a Savage barrel nut wrench and action wrench or barrel vise.
Next build : tikka vs savage storm

Maybe he didn't consider it as an option.

It's nice to know what other options you have. For my money I would rather buy just the action instead of a whole rifle. There again at that point you have more options on how to dress it from there

I didn't even know that zermatt action existed. That's a nice platform for a guy that owns savage threaded barrels. I'm assuming it fits a rem 700 stock ? I think that's what I'm reading .

yes it is. It's the old bighorn receivers. I owned one until it was stolen. It's a very, very nice action. It's a rem 700 foot print.

This thread has blossomed into something much more broad 
. I will chime in on the Mac Bros action since I just received one two weeks ago. They are very impressive actions and I've owned a lot of different custom actions. I think it is the smoothest bolt I've ever run in an action.

No I don't, think it is worth $700 more dollars. From what I remember the stainless is only $575 and the titanium is $1275. my neighbor down the street works for Mac Bros and has one of their titanium actions. He built it into a prs gun and said that the titanium is not near as slick as the stainless. The bolt acts sticky when run fast. It Would be good for a mountain hunting rifle but not for fast bolt flinging, the stainless is much more smooth.
