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
Not a big fan of the Blaser. The TRG is a real-wold proven, accurate platform. You will not get a brand new custom stick for $2800. Support is better on the TRG and the accessories, albeit more expensive, are readily available.
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.

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.
Price out a replacment barrel for the Blaser. Unless you've got plenty of cash, that may make your decision. 300WM will eat up barrels quick like (<2k rounds).
