I do not own one, have shot several. I have not shot one yet that wasn't accurate. They are a very good value & I don't think you'll be dissappointed.

I like mine also! I still am looking for a better sabot though.

Mine has been very accurate. Sub 1" groups at 100 and 2" groups at 200. I have 6 inlines in my gun room, 2 Knights, a Savage, the Omega, and 2 CVAs, the Omega out shoots them all.

I have the Omega and it groups three shots touching at 100 yards with the Hornady 250 gr SST and two 50 gr pellets of American Pioneer

TC will tell the gun was made for sabots. I had one for awhile, and I have to shoot conicals in my state. The Thor was the only bore size bullet it would shoot.
Just in case you live in Colorado, or plan on coming here for a hunt.
Money can't buy you happiness, but it can buy you a hunting license and that's pretty close.

I have a blued synthetic TC Omega and I love it. It's plenty accurate. I lightened the trigger pull a tad and installed a Limbsaver pad and it shoots great.
The only issue I have with it is the hollow plastic stock. It's an easy fix though to fill it with foam and/or sound deadening something or other. That and and a free float is next on the list.
I have absolutely no regrets about buying it.

My Omega is stainless/camo. My wife bought it for me six years ago. I scoped it with Leopold QR mounts and it shoots 295 grain Powerbelts into less than an inch at 100 yards. Wouldn't give it up at any price.

I love my Omega, and it has accounted for two Arkansas bucks in the last two days..my only complaint is that it's a pain to get the primer in, but that's pretty minor considering how great everything else is about it.
Indecision is the key to flexibility..

Another satisfied Omega owner here. Get right around 2,000 fps with the 245 Spitfire and the 250 TMZ. Not many animals here can stop that combo...

Love mine, it shoots 250 GR. TMZ's very well with 90 GR's BH 209 or 2 777 pellets. Have taken 4 bull elk with the TMZ and they work well.
