Each have their issues. Even with grade inflation, GPA is reflective of a long-term process that unfolds over years. ACT is an afternoon when who knows what can be going on.

To prevent rampant grade inflation, normalize each school's GPA (and for ones where the top-end indicates significantly less rigorous coursework than other schools', use the standardized tests to fill in the gaps). That'll outperform both GPA alone and SATs alone.
