How much is Hugh selling them for?
Alot of the baby boomers generation are hanging up their hunting boots and flooding the European market with high quality used Rifles,that's effecting the sale of higher end new guns.

I don't understand "Blaser-mania".
How much would they cost if Miroku or Howa a produced them?
They have more warranty claims than any other Rifle I know of but still people pay a premium for them.
If there is one type of Rifle that's going to Fuck out when the guys have to do their shooting test it's going to be a blaser.The ones with the integrally suppressed barrel need a 40minute cool down after a 5 shot string.
interesting info
Its funny how the most expensive stuff not just guns seems to be the stuff that shits its self the most and people keep buying it and defending it. It's almost like some elite club where you go and buy a piece of shit so you can brag about how much it cost and how often it fuks outQuote:

If you lose a mag that's sad, but mag and trigger pack? Probs cost the same a second hand rifle to replace.
Switch barrel is a cool concept but not when one barrel costs the same as a brand new Tikka (or more?!)
Manually cocking the bolt... if you really need a 'safety' feature like that you should not be shooting, as you would have needed to break every safety rule already to make it worthwhile.
Only Blaser I've had experience with was an R8 and the bloody thing got its nice out of joint over a bit of dust and cold weather (icing) on a tahr trip and wouldn't go into battery, wasn't very impressed, old mate that was there with us had to do all the shooting with his Savage 110 lol
I've got a Blaser R8 in a carbon stock, I love it for the straight pull action, the rest of it doesn't really phase me. I love it because it does what it's meant to do, really well.
Can I justify the cost? No.
Will I ever sell it? I doubt it.
There just doesn't seem to be any cheaper options for a decent straight pull rifle.
they are some nice scopes. make nightforces look cheap.Quote:

I help out at the Range where up to 500 hunters per week take there Shooting test in the lead up to the hunting season.You see alot if different guns as well as shooters of all abilities.

The action is 30 metres longQuote:

lol yes I agree, the action was quite long compared to a blaser. But the Maral does 'fling' back automatically once pulled back which is pretty handy.Quote:

Rem700 22-250, 26", Stug stock which I cleaned up and wet sanded heaps to give it a nice finish, also reshaped the forend and used epoxy to fill any imperfections and wet sanded it all back again, it's come up pretty darn good. Dpt Mk2, Nightforce Shv
