6 x 9,3x62.jpg
Hy together, its my first posting here after a long time just reading.

These are 6 shots at 100 meter with Sako 9,3x62 Barnes TSX and 260 grain. Nice hole. Blaser R8 Semi Weight and Blaser Silencer Supressor. 9,3 can do it. Topped with the new Kahles 318i soon this could be even a nice stalking rifle for scotland.... ;)

That's good shooting for 6 shots.
You have to be very pleased with that group, especially considering it's factory ammunition. :clap:

Welcome to Balser Buds, nice shooting. A lot of us here just love the 9.3 for this reason, it seems to shoot a wide variety of loads well and is without doubt exceptionally decisive on game. Where in Germany can you use silencers now. I'm in Berlin as I write this but also spend a lot of time in Magdeburg.

Hi Robert, Thanks. We can use silencers in Baden-Württemberg since 2016 i think. My second one for the R8 in .308 "Jagdmatch" should be there in a couple of weeks. It is a joy to shoot with, improves accuracy and is very comfortable over all. Additionally it helps to protect the hearing of my hairy hunting buddy. :)

Hmmm, I always thought it was because it just killed everything you shot without fuss or drama, it just works in a very mild mannered and polite fasion.

Magnum killing power without huge recoil and ear splitting blast.
I'm soft and I don't care. :dance:
