RE: T/C Omega Z.50
ORIGINAL: MLKeith
Depending on the stock that is on an Omega they may be sensitive to removing the action and reinstalling it. My original (read more expensive) stainless Omega is difficult to get the same POI after removing and reinstalling the action from the stock. I have not bedded it but think I am going to have to do something as the change is more than I can deal with. Last year I sighted it just before the hunt and then missed a really easy shot. I rechecked the gun on a target and the impact had changed almost eight inches at 50 yards. NOT GOOD!!!! I can't believe that all that came from just removing and reinstalling the action but could find nothing else wrong. Scope was tight and has been reliable, it is a Simmons shotgun scope. Others have had similar results with the synthetic stocks on the Omega.
