Blaser or TRG 42 300 Win Mag?

Re: Blaser or TRG 42 300 Win Mag?

TRG. More aftermarket support. Proven design. The Blaser straight pull action has had a couple instances of catastrophic bolt ejection into the shooter's face during firing.

if it's only for target shooting in the range I would take the Blaser LRS but if you are going to use the rifle in the field and sniper competitions then I would take the Sako TRG
hope this helps
 
Re: Blaser or TRG 42 300 Win Mag?

WHy are you limiting yourself to those two

For the cost of either you can get or darn near get a custom build

I have never shot a Blaser, but I have been very happy with the TRGs that I have had over the years
 
Re: Blaser or TRG 42 300 Win Mag?

Definitely not the Blaser.

If it was just between those two I would go with the Sako.

However if it were me, I would probably lean towards the AI.

Also take a look at the DTA SRS. The bullpup design puts a lot of people off, but you really can't argue with the ability to change calibers easily.

Personally love the TRG, but haven't had the pleasure of owning one yet. That is next up (just haven't told the wife yet). I always have to budget for more than the gun because our deal is that she gets jewelry in return. Ouch.

My vote out of those two also goes for the Sako.

I feel like a broken record will all sorts of people asking TRG or.... All i can say is my TRG is stupid accurate and tough as nails, you wont be disappointed there are tons of TRG owners out thee and I have heard very few complaints. They truly are one hell of a rifle.

My TRG 300 win is absolutely incredible to shoot. Not only is it 1/2 MOA, but it is very forgiving from a recoil perspective (with the brake). My 13 year old son not only can shoot it well, but can shoot it all day. It has also more than held its value. It goes without saying the TRG deserves excellent glass as part of the budget.
