So these came in this week. Two barrels from a custom barrel / gun maker out of Utah. J. Sip & Sons.
They make custom Blaser R8 and R93 barrels as well as other more traditional turn-bolt guns.
What we have here are a match weight, fluted, threaded barrel in 300PRC. And the second barrel is a semi-weight custom made barrel in 7.5 Swiss.
Yes, you read that right. 7.5×55. The same caliber that you feed to your K31 straight-pull MILSURPS. As for why? Simple. We have 3 cases of GP11 ammo.
So…if you are looking for a custom Blaser R8 or R93 caliber or twist rate? Yes, they can do it. Because believe you me, they NEVER made a 7.5 barrel before I asked for it. But gosh darn, they made it!!!
Justin Sip demos 450 Bushmaster & 350 Legend in Blaser R8
And to really pile on the point. At the time of this writing, they are making 450 Bushmaster, 350 Legend and even a muzzle loader barrel for the Blaser R8 guns.
So all you straight-wall restricted hunters? Now you can use your Blaser R8 at home, not just in Africa or some high-dollar driven hunt in Europe.
Stay tuned. More to come on this.
