[QUOTE="Dalebow, post: 670355, member: 34477"] [b]Re: Blaser r93 - is it accurate. Did it deserve the "Rifle of the Century"[/b] I know Iam coming into the conversation late, but my 2 cents. Most people who have comments have never shot much less held a blaser. Yes a couple R93 blew up, but they were ALL loaded with bad ammo that had been loaded to higher pressures or some other operator error. If you search the You Tube video on barrels/guns blowing up, yo will see that the guns that held together were the german and finn rifles, Howa, and the Remington blew up, the gun exploded into pieces. How many people have died because of a bad trigger safety?? I love all guns, have sako, remington, winchester, blaser, savage, browning, and all but 3 have been sent for trigger work, bedding, mcmillan stock, action truing, lug lapping, re crowning..................the one is the Blaser R8 and my blaser R93 the other is my accustock Savage that is a freaking tack driver. Rifle of the century.......probably until the R8 came along, now the R8 earns that title in my book. If I could change barrels on my Sako 85 300wsm it might be rife of the year, that darn thing is sweet:-) [/QUOTE]
