I think I need one.........

Looking at the price differential between the Blaser GRS and one inletted for a Sako,
I think they're complete with bedding block and trigger, the Atzl trigger was an option,
just drop your barrell in and shoot.
I'll try and find the website, may have been Mulliners in the UK.

Nice. What calibre is that?
This makes me want to get a new barrel for my R8. And a trigger upgrade to bix & andy.

Yep that's what I am thinking too... Unless the fact that its for a Blaser makes it some how worth more...?

Hmmmm, its gonna be about $6.5k - $7k landed.

Maybe I dont need one.......

Complete rifle or stock with internals?, that seems more than the one I saw

I think the most "cost effective" way to get one would be buying the complete gun in 338LM etc then selling the barrel if you only want the stock. I'll revisit the idea after I win Powerball...

$2,810 USD on EuroOptic for the stock with std trigger...

So $NZD4300, I think that's taking the piss for just the stock considering a Professional S Off Road R8 ( fixed mag/trigger)retails for $USD2895 ex EuroOptic.( complete rifle )

GRS stocks inletted for Rem, Sauer, Sako, Tikka etc retail in Europe for €750 / $USD835 / $NZD1285.... So that'd be a yeah-nah from me for the Blaser GRS

I'm not sure, but I assume it is integrated as GRS is a Blaser partner. It is a bit heavier than the original stock.

I don't think Bix'n Andy is available for R8, but the Atlz is. Not tried that one but supposedly very good.

$5900 USD for the complete rifle in 338LM. Looking at around $2.7k to get a 338LM barrel, bolt head and mag insert here in NZ. So its still expensive to buy it complete...

The R8 338LM barrel is significantly more expensive than the ordinary barrels.

For the R8 the Atzl trigger is only available via Blaser and it requires a stock modification. For the R93 it's an add on directly from Bix'n Andy ( company name- by Mr Andy Atzl). I have the 250grams Atzl trigger on my R8 and I don't wanna have anything else anymore!
