Cnickolas Posted September 27, 2022 Share Posted September 27, 2022 Any recommendations on how to solve weak extraction on an Origin action? The brass mostly ejects about 3 inches from the action and at times back into the action. I’ve cleaned the chamber and bolt without any improvement.

Tom Freeman Posted September 29, 2022 Share Posted September 29, 2022 Last I knew the origins were a mechanical ejector and not a spring loaded ejector. Best advice I can give is to work the bolt a little more aggressively. I got tired of the run around with Zermatt customer service, so I sold my actions and went with a Terminus. Zero regrets. Its too bad, Bighorn/Zermatt used to be an awesome company. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LuvDog Posted September 30, 2022 Share Posted September 30, 2022 Interesting, most online comments are that Zermatt/Bighorn has good customer service, while Terminus can be a bit of a void in hearing back on order/build status. I keep thinking about picking up a lefty Zeus QC, but have been reluctant because of the comments I've seen about lack of response and delays.

FatPanda Posted September 30, 2022 Share Posted September 30, 2022 Are you pulling the bolt back with some force? Or are you gently pulling it back? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bolt_Thrower Posted January 31 Share Posted January 31 Origin is mechanical ejector. You need to run it harder if you want the brass to fly. Zermatt customer service is excellent, but you need to call them during business hours. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lbrace Posted Thursday at 04:55 AM Share Posted Thursday at 04:55 AM I have dealt with Zermatt since the Origin action came out and now have 4 of them. They are great actions and the customer has been great to deal either by phone and email. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Freeman Posted Friday at 08:13 PM Share Posted Friday at 08:13 PM Strange. My CS dealings with the new Zermatt, not Bighorn, led me away from Zermatt to Terminus. The company wasnt the same after AJ sold it to Zermatt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
