Blaser R 93 in .22-250 Rem.

It is superfluous to underline how the genius of Horst Blaser has initiated a new way of conceiving rifles in which the particular solutions allow a machined realization and consequently an exemplary precision and a constancy of shooting much appreciated.

blaser r93We have dutifully cited the designer and founder of the Blaser company and just as dutifully cited Lücke & Ortmeyer, a company with interests in a completely different kind of industry, but headed by the two owners who are so passionate about sporting rifles and commendably endowed with strong capital. The two characteristics just mentioned first allowed the acquisition of Blaser GmbH and, later, on the right wave, the merger of the two historical names of the German arms world, JP Sauer and Mauser Werke which was also joined by Rigby. British. In short, a share package with historical peaks on the one hand, innovative on the other with which to offer the markets a formidable range of hunting and shooting weapons. Today we leave aside the R8, the latest Blaser model, for a moment, and take the R93 again by hand: a solution differentiates the two rifles and is the magazine made in block with the guard, trigger, trigger group in the most recent one. This is not the place for the exegesis of the new equipment: the fact is that the solid primitive system still has its admirers and therefore we believe that the revival can be useful.

Our friend Paolo Silvano from the Berrone armory in Alessandria once again provided us with a beautiful example of R93 for which we are grateful: the rifle is known for its essentiality and for having cleared the screws in the minds of many enthusiasts. Torx, a solution as difficult to the elegance of the gun world as it is valuable in its extreme functionality. We therefore give a mention to the solutions that most characterize this creation.

The battery arming button is located on the shutter cover, here in the disarming position

How is the R93 made

Among the most evident characteristics we mention the light weight and the compactness, with the same rod, compared to traditional solutions: already two factors held in great consideration by hunters, especially those who practice their art in the mountains. Another choice specifies the in-line movement retrieved from two Austrian Steyr military rifles, the Model 1886 and the Model 1895 where the analogy is limited to the movement since the locking mechanism, as we will see, is completely different. A further peculiar element is represented by the battery which is not armed with the movement of the shutter, but thanks to a button located on the mobile breech activated separately from the opening and the possible introduction of the cartridge into the chamber. Let's now observe the fixing of the barrel to the stock: two pilierini obtained as a block from the outside of the breech and internally threaded are positioned in the holes obtained in the barrel: everything is tightened with two screws. There is no need for bedding because the barrel arrangement is already made for a stable posture in the cradle of the blank.

blaser r93
Pushing the cocking button forward activates the battery, revealing a red signal point: the shutter has also been opened by moving back the whole assembly

Then there is no castle properly understood, but a metal preform embedded in the stock from which the slide rails of the trolley are obtained and within which the battery, the trigger system and the charger are housed. The trolley just mentioned is composed of an external light alloy shell that covers the shutter system ingeniously borrowed from the systems for joining the tubes for the transfer of compressed air. The system is divided into sectors: starting from the bolt head, a cylinder with a hollow face to support the bottom of the cartridge and house the firing pin hole; on the side there is the prismatic block of the extractor, stopped very simply by a harmonic steel half-ring.

blaser r93
The distal anterior part of the obturator with the cylinder in which the extractor block is embedded, stopped by a harmonic steel wire shaped in a semicircle. Then, towards the left, the teeth of the closing plates

Moving back we observe the heart of the implant which we can compare to an hourglass composed of a single circle base from which twelve elastic sheets branch off and each ends frontally with a tooth with a studied profile. The pivoting movement of the handlebar pushes forward, within the group of blades, a cone-shaped profile that expands them, making them hook inside a circular crown obtained in the breech thickness of the barrel. The reverse movement of the handlebar, thanks to internal undercut planes obtained on its axis, releases the block of the complex allowing it to retract. It is easy to understand how the direct junction between bolt and barrel is the promoter of remarkable precision.

The barrel

The system lends itself to changing the barrel with considerable ease, repositioning it with extreme accuracy and precision: the passage between the various calibers is obviously allowed within homogeneous groups in terms of external dimensions and bolt diameter. According to German practice, metal sights supported by two welded sockets are provided: in the first there is the leaf rear sight with a wide U-shaped view, a white reference bar and tilt adjustment on the dovetail base. The second houses the front sight made up of a cylindrical bar in red translucent synthetic material: a screw and an internal pin on which the particular rotates allow elevation.

The words reported in clear and fine handwriting on the side of the shutter cover

These sights are very practical for shooting: let's not forget that in German hunts for ungulates, where the game is pushed without forcing them, semi-automatic rifles are not well seen or even allowed, so a system with in-line movement like the Blaser, equipped with the best manual reset speed, it is a premium on the traditional sliding rotating shutter. Not to be forgotten is the assembly of the optics, not present here, but whose ingenuity of the company study is appreciated: on the breech of the barrel two round recesses are obtained on the right and on the left two other hemispherical in which the feet of the support are positioned with a hook of extreme stability, very easy to use and guarantor of restoring the position in the classic take off and on.

blaser germany
The rear sight supported by a socket welded to the barrel is decidedly sturdy and of immediate acquisition, an advantage especially for racing shooting, thanks to the very wide U and the white reference. The tilt adjustment takes place on the dovetail guide and is locked with a front screw, not visible here

The stock

The stock of this model follows modernity with its construction in printed synthetic material and functionality thanks to the classic shapes: the stock includes the linear back of convenient thickness and roundness for a comfortable support of the face, the nose pad highlighted by the two side shells, the pistol elongated and covered with non-slip rubber, the butt pad also in similar material. The shaft with a prismatic section offers a comfortable support in the targeted shot while the rounded fore-end, also with non-slip side panels, lends itself to that in motion. The pegs for the belt holder are cast in the mold. We find the choice of the dark green color very apt, instead of the usual anthracite gray.

Starting from the beautiful dark green color, the shapes of the football are also well chosen with classic lines and the best functionality. The sides of the pistol grip and butt plate have non-slip black rubber surfaces

final Thoughts

Low weight and easy handling are the cornerstones of these shotguns to which is added the precision, usually of a high level and here in excellent evidence thanks to the chambered cartridge: the .22-250 Rem. she is one of the many daughters of American enthusiast studios who, at a certain point, were deservedly adopted by Remington who codified the measures by establishing a convenient industrial production.

blaser r93 air rifle
The design of the guard and that of the trigger that activates a direct click weighing about 800 g is appreciable: not very light, but today many like it like this, in American use. Actually, in hunting action you can appreciate the sharpness of the release, completely free from any vice

With the progressive rarefaction of the .220 Swift on the market, the .22-250 Rem. has taken on a notable role as a .22 high intensity: speed and intrinsic precision make it a phenomenal solution in shooting range and in many hunting areas where it allows surgical shots at game even of considerable size.
