    I had a feeling that would be your answer haha

    But on a serious note did they ever make a turn bolt or whatever you call them. A normal bolt action? I can't find one on their website

    Yes, before the R93. I think it was a SM88 or KM88? That is fucking ugly though. Almost Howa ugly.
    The range of what we think and do is limited by what we fail to notice. And because we fail to notice that we fail to notice, there is little we can do to change; until we notice how failing to notice shapes our thoughts and deeds

    I guess they would have to run out of supplies of those fabled "plastic washers" before a redesign might be called for. Not my cup of tea either I'm afraid.

    Blaser make a beatiful single shot rifle.
    Someone on the forum had one, and had trouble with it though. Maybe it was Norway?

    They make some nice double rifles too that I like, only complaint I have heard on them is the decocking safety, on a dangerous game rifle phs are wary of not having a quick flick off safety.

    The D99 drilling are quite the work of art, as are the K95 single shot rifles.

    I was looking at a drilling yesterday on the blaser site thinking what calibers I'd have. I couldn't really decide.

    Let's say you got one what barrels would you have?

    A bedding block cant be that hard to make and a stock that has been run over or dropped off a bluff must be around somewhere, get one and give it to someone with a cnc mill, probably spit out 30 an hour.
