Born in 1990 from a study conducted between Blaser and RWS, the .30R Blaser is proposed as an intermediate cartridge suitable for a considerable part of European game: if we want to limit the scope of action to Italy we can say that there are no contraindications. Wanting to go deeper, we can quote the saying pertaining to .30-06 Sprg. good a little for everything and specific for nothinghere, the .30R Blaser has several more cartridge values than for the Americans, and not only for them, it represents the touchstone and therefore the adaptability to a wider range of occasions is worthily represented by this new offer.
Considering how the .300 rifle calibers are already very well represented in the current panorama, the new creation bears the imprint of the Central European technical mark for specific use in action shotguns, which have long since returned to the crest of the wave thanks above all to the kipplaufs with Jäger mechanics. of which Blaser was the rediscoverer. This type of long gun allows, without refined sophistication in the materials and in the sizing of the parts as happens for bolt action rifles, to contain the weight within those limits now considered optimal (under 3 kg without accessories) for super athletics and in the mountains. rival in the race with chamois.
The cartridge takes its part to make the most of the conspicuous charge of propellant allowed by the 12,20 mm³ powder chamber, with a case length of 68 mm (which recalls at least a couple of Otto Schuler's splendid creations) from the corner shoulder slightly above 40 ° and with an operating pressure of 4050 bar. For comparison the data of a .30-06 Sprg. they are respectively 11,96, with a shoulder angle of 34 ° 30 'while the pressure of 4050 bar is identical.
All this is felt as a sensation of recoil, but a good soft rubber butt plate contains it adequately. A parallel between the values of the four cartridges indicated below, taken from Barnes, shows the significant numerical values with 150 and 180 grain bullets with speed in mt / sec and energy in kgm
Cartridge .30R Blaser .30-06 Sprg. .300 H. & H. .300 Win. Mag.
Ball 150 gr V / 0 E / 0 936/429 915/414 1006/490 976/471
180 gr ball V / 0 E / 0 875/443 839/417 885/464 915/497
It seems right to add the .300 Win as appropriate reloads. Mag. Push the ball from 180 gr at V / 2 between 940 and 955 m / sec. We also add a series of three original charges for the .30R Blaser caliber that RWS had set up after the presentation of the cartridge:
KS ball of 9,7 g / 150 grs V / 0 940 m / "- E / 0 430 kgm - V / 300 640 m /" - E / 300 200 kgm
10,9 g / 168 grs DK ball V / 0 940 m / "- E / 0 473 kgm - V / 300 630 m /" - E / 300 212 kgm
11,7 g / 180 grs TUG bullet V / 0 860 m / "- E / 0 432 kgm - V / 300 575 m /" - E / 300 235 kgm
As can be seen from the data, the realization lends itself to all our game, including deer, and to much of that available in the most popular hunting theaters, from Eastern Europe trespassing into Asia to get to North America, just to fix something real in mind. .
The packaging
The RWS uses sturdy cardboard boxes printed in color inside which the hive is located, also in cardboard, avoiding ecologically those in plastic. The technical explanations of the EVO bullet with lead core welded to the jacket and aerodynamic profile of the bottom, reported ogive said Rapid® for a quick release of energy, sharp ring to punch the skin of the game, leaving a conspicuous blood trace, crimping hollow, anti-oxide nickel-plated tombac jacket. All this to allow the sudden expansion of the apical part, a considerable penetration together with the maintenance of the mass and, finally, favorable external ballistics performances.
To conclude, this cartridge lends itself in an optimal way, thanks to the collar, to be chambered in the swinging action, providing a level of performance not very dissimilar to the more well-known magnums of the same caliber prepared for rifles.
