Blaser R8 Ultimate Monza

NEW IMAGE WITHOUT SCOPE
With its distinctive design, the Monza version of the Blaser R8 Ultimate immediately catches the eyeThe gunsmiths at Blaser have borrowed the name for this special model of the R8 Ultimate – as they did with the Silverstone – from a famous racetrack: the Autodromo Nazionale di Monza. The fast firing sequence through the straight pull, the precision and reliability of the rifle, and the sporty-elegant design justify the choice of this namesake.The StockThe black synthetic hole stock is an eye-catcher with its red leather inlays and the R8 logo in the same color. But the stock is not only beautiful, it is also tactile and ergonomically pleasant. The pistol grip with the grip hole keeps the shooting hand in a relaxed position at all times. The optional leather comb is height-adjustable to allow for an even more personalized fit for the physique of the shooters. The recoil pad noticeably compensates for the felt recoil.The SystemThe hand tensioning system of the R8 Ultimate Monza guarantees maximum safety by relaxing the firing pin spring. The tension is applied only immediately before the shot by pushing the tensioning slider forward. The quickly reloadable straight pull repeating system is made of duralumin and is matte black anodized. The direct trigger of the R8 Ultimate Monza rifle is crisp and ensures a precise shot release without jerking. The trigger, chamber grip ball, and chamber are coated with the extremely hard DLC coating (Diamond Like Carbon). This reduces friction loss to a minimum. The bolt is available in three caliber groups: Mini, Standard, and Magnum.Barrel and CaliberThe barrels of Blaser are manufactured from cold-forged high-quality alloy steel, which possesses the best mechanical properties in its homogeneity. The surface is plasma-nitrided and blued. When choosing the barrel for your R8 Ultimate Monza, you have the option of various barrels ranging in length from 47 cm to 58 cm, with or without sights, depending on your caliber preference. You can also decide whether you want a smooth or fluted barrel. The latter has the advantage that the increased surface area due to the fluting dissipates heat more quickly, so that even with high rates of fire, no disturbing mirage occurs. Another advantage is a reduction in weight.The Sight OpticsThe mounting of the optics is simple and reliable via the Blaser saddle mount DBP. A range of mounts for various manufacturers of sight optics are compatible with the R8 Ultimate Monza: Zeiss ZM and VM, Swarovski, Schmidt & Bender, Prisma, Z-Point, Aimpoint Micro, and Docter-Sight. Additionally, a saddle mount with 25.4, 30, or 34 mm rings for scopes without rails can be attached.Technical DetailsType: Repeating rifleStock: Synthetic, with red leather inlays sewn onto the grip, comb, and padStock type: Hole stock with optional height-adjustable combSystem: DLC coatingTrigger: Direct trigger, approx. 750 g trigger weightSafety: Firing pin safetyMagazine: RemovableCapacity: 3-5 cartridges depending on caliberBarrel: Cold-forged alloy steelBarrel surface: Plasma-nitrided and bluedBarrel length: 47 cm to 58 cm depending on caliberOptics: Blaser saddle mount DBPWeight without optics: approx. 3.4 kg
