Am looking at A new budget short action and like the looks of the Origin action. What is the quality of these? Will I need to have a bunch of work done to it before I have a barrel put on it to be a shooter? Planning on using a Proof CF in 7mm SAW
 
I got an Origin LA about two years ago. For the money, they are fantastic. Smooth, swappable bolt faces, CRF, mechanical ejector. They have a lot going for them. Tons of guys chamber prefits for them too.

You will not find anyone on here that has one that will say anything negative about it other than three lug lovers. It’s a wonderful action for your stated use and Zermatt has some of the best customer service in the industry. Very solid choice.

I bought one last year for a 7mm saw as well. 10lb (scope included) hunting rifle that shoots between 0.5-0.75 moa regularly. A better shooter could make it a regular 0.5 rifle no problem. The action feels just as good, or even better, than the premium actions out there. Less features, but very well manufactured.
