Thread: Blaser Q's & A's

Didn't know LR had one and Abe still has a couple blasers as of last night's discussion with him about parts.

Each to their own. Brads most probably has a good reason for changing.

I personally would not buy an R8 unless it was to be a platform for a static F class rifle.
Blaser will lighten them up eventually.
My only issue with them.

Can't wait. This time next week I will be bush for 18 days. Could be less if I get what I am after.

Yes

As long as you know how much to dial between the two barrels, just dial the difference

I had the scopes off brads barrels a few times, the poi never changed at 1000yrds

I must be the exception to the rule cos I have an R8 and 2 March scopes and I really love them. Admittedly they are the newer 52mm obj versions of the March and not the 42mm obj ones which, to be honest, were terrible.

Had my R8 for over 5 years now I think.

E: The glass is still less than amazing on the new March scopes.

I think blasers are a great idea and if they had a lighter weight
Carbon stocked version then I would have one no questions asked,
But until then I will keep my LRM. I don't see any issue with changing
Guns it's all about what you want or think you need
At the time ae @BRADS

So can anybody tell me what it is that makes it so much better with whatever brads and LR are replacing their R8s with?

Christensen arms make them all light and shit. Have heard mixed reviews on them tho.
Mine is waiting a Nz made carbon stock.

And for the record I have nothing against Blasers I just don't understand this trend.

I think brads is a r93 so lighter and I believe LR sold his to get the factory
Fluted version both still blasers though...
