Blaser: The Evolution of German Hunting Rifles (Page 2)

Blaser’s flagship R93 is an ingenious example of precise, modular engineering.

As you may have guessed by now, I like the R93. With a suggested retail price starting at $3,039, this unique and innovative rifle is a modern marvel of engineering and design. Is it the perfect modern hunting rifle? There are many who believe it is. But I am reluctant to describe any rifle as “perfect” for one simple reason: I think calling anything “perfect” can have a retarding effect on further advancements, and while the R93 may be the pinnacle of hunting rifles now, who knows what may be next. Just imagine if we stopped looking for new rifle designs after the “perfect” Mauser came out. There would be no R93, and so with that thought, I am eager to see what the German mind can do with the next hunting rifle.

If you only judge a rifle on one set of criteria, then you don't deserve to own a blaser as you wouldnt appreciate it anyway-so stick with a 700. Thats like saying a corvette and a souped up pinto are equals because they both can go 120 mps! When u figure in safety, fit and feel and caliber interchangeability u can't even compare a 700 to a blaser.

my out of box rem. 700-3006 with factory ammo will match the 'r93 for acuracy.
