Blaser’s new R8 Success Individual to begin shipping in June

Hunting rifle and shotgun maker Blaser unveiled the new R8 Success Individual rifle, set to begin shipping in June 2017, according to the company.

The bolt-action rifle pairs two natural raw materials, wood with leather, pairing the solid R8 silhouette with the sleekness of leather. The two-piece stock, made from precious walnut wood, features an ergonomic Blaser thumbhole. The thumbhole design provides a relaxed posture for shooters’ wrist and arm in multiple firing positions, ensuring a consistently clean shot. The rifle’s brown leather inlays further comfort with a soft design for hands and cheek, while also elevating the long gun’s overall style.

Equipped with a rubber recoil pad and ebony forearm tip, the R8 Success Individual boasts a matte black receiver and gold-colored R8 logo for a boost of elegance. The rifle will be available in wood class 4 and 7 with calibers ranging from 222 Remington to 375 H&H. An optional fluted barrel will also be available.

The gorgeously designed rifle comes at a hefty price retailing for $6,969.
