Consequently, the braced can only be perfect, an adjective that should be used in any situation. The system is captivating to say the least and the cheek piece in question adapts very well to the proportions of the various bodies, without forgetting the adaptability to different optics which occurs in just a few seconds. Blaser never forgets how critical recoil absorption is in his firearms and the system of the R8 Ultimate is no exception.
