I reckon it can be done. You set your load up right and it's piss easy. I shoot my R93 300wm as good as a few customs out to 1000m Just put the practice in. But a nice 7oz trigger is super sweet and that's about the only problem with the Blasers.Corjack wrote:I actually have actually given this a lot of thought. The conclusion I have come to, is the R8 might be ok to try a small local shoot to see if you liked that style of competion, but it would not be easy to compete with.rick137 wrote:How would an R8 do in such competitions? My hypothesis is very well with one caveat. If you have to fire more than five rounds in a given time period, then instead of a magazine you would need another trigger control unit. Perhaps no big deal. With an Elmer semi-weight 6.5 Creed or perhaps a Blaser 6.5 Creed fluted match barrel, appropriate ammunition and appropriate scope I am certain you would not be rig disadvantaged.
It is kinda the level of competition that if something worked everyone would be doing it.
Here is a list of gotta haves
First Focal Scope
10 round mags
Moderator or muzzle brake
High BC bullets
Calibers that are low recoil
Probably a kestrel, or shoot with a buddy that has one.
Lotsa practice
