Blaser USA’s R8: Perhaps the Ultimate Bolt-Action Rifle
Blaser USA‘s R8 Ultimate bolt-action rifle is the latest addition to the Blaser R8 line. Available in two options: R8 Ultimate and R8 Ultimate Leather. Both feature an ergonomic synthetic thumbhole stock that ensures a comfortable, relaxed shooting position and optimal control of the rifle when firing.
The new modular stock options can be tailored to individual needs and include an adjustable comb,
adjustable recoil pad and adjustable recoil absorption system.
A .22 Long Rifle (LR) conversion kit is also now available for the Blaser R8. This long-awaited .22 caliber rimfire kit includes the barrel and newly designed magazine and bolt head. This new offering will allow current and future R8 owners to easily change from larger calibers to the small bore .22 LR for training.
“We are excited to expand our R8 rifle product line with the addition of the Ultimate and Ultimate
Leather models and new .22 LR conversion kit,” said Jason Evans, CEO of Blaser USA. “Our
customers have been asking for a .22 caliber model. This is an ideal add-on for those who like
to train intensively with their hunting rifle but want the option of reduced recoil and less
expensive ammunition. The new R8 Ultimate stock options are our most ergonomically
advanced to date and provide serious hunters with numerous options that can be tailored to
their specific needs and personal preferences.”
Additional Options:
Adjustable Comb: The intuitively operated, multi-level adjustable comb ensures perfect mounting.
Recoil Absorption System: The easily inserted recoil pad with a recoil absorption system makes for a pleasant shooting experience, even with larger calibers. The internal absorption elements are available in different hardness and can greatly reduce muzzle rise while shooting.
Adjustable Recoil Pad: The adjustable length, height, and pitch of the recoil pad allow for quick and easy adjustment for different shooters.
