Geez. I suppose some of us (myself included) geek out on the support equipment more than the guns and shooting lol. I was also one that preferred to BUILD RC airplane kits rather than fly them back before the hobby went to poop.

For anyone fighting this issue with their Origin this may be a possible fix. Went out at dusk and it shot right where it was with the prior session. I’m happy. We’ll see if it’s a long term fix though.

I may have made a little improvement with the tweak I did last night. I've had it in and out of the safe twice now with some normal everyday handling thrown in and so far it has held POI. I won't call it a success just yet until I test it further but so far I can say it is a big improvement...

We’ll I broke it down and found something pretty interesting. The boss the shroud threads into (newer version) has a set screw that I had been able to snug down quite a bit last week. It was now pretty much what I would consider “loose” and was pulling away from the face of the receiver. I...

I understand but it would kinda ruin the esthetics of the gun. I can’t imagine more haven’t fought with this or that there seems to be no real solution. Guess I deserve it for trying to get off cheap. Now I’m looking at FXs lol.

I may also try backing off on the threaded muzzle cap.

For those interested, the scope is a new Athlon FFP 4-14x44 mounted in aluminum Leupold rings. Torqued with a Fat Wrench. I have decades of scope mounting experience on precision powder burners so any sort of mounting issue is unlikely.

One possibility I’ve been contemplating is the chance that the little barrel centering device’s (sorry I don’t know the actual name lol) o rings may be sticking to the shroud and causing unwanted shifts in the barrel. I’m going to pull the shroud tonight and really slather that area with...

Decided to take a break from powder burners and ordered a new Umarex Origin in .22 a couple weeks ago. I have been super happy with it so far except for one very annoying issue. Dramatic point of impact shifts from day to day. I know this issue is well-known but I am wondering if anyone has...

Hello everyone! Nice to be here! I just took delivery of my Yong Heng this past Sunday and have filled it with the Air Venturi compressor oil sold by PA. Seems like it may be a good compromise for the super expensive blends. Any reviews on it?
