anyone bought a Zermätt Origin Action lately

[7mm-08 Freak]

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

lol, no, it’ll be fine as you receive it.

Buy it. Buy the barrel and put them together.
Don't screw with the action

I bought one last year and slapped a PVA barrel in it. Fantastic rifle

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.

I have 2. They are great actions, and Zermatt is outstanding to deal with. You will not find better customer support.

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.

It’s a custom action…not some mass produced action…just but it and your barrel and screw it on and go shoot.

Origins rock. Buy with confidence, and then don’t mess with it. Have 300 WSM, 7 saum, and 6.5 prc barrels for mine.

Bought one about 5 months ago and works great. DO NOT do anything to the action except screw the barrel into it.

I got a HLR recoil lug and screwed one of my PVA TL3 barrels on to it and it works perfect.
