    Why Buy A Blaser K95?

    I bought one earlier this year in a 30-06 and then added a second 243 win barell to the setup. O never thought I'd like hunting with it as I much as I do, and the finish on the rifle is superb. Always draws an audience when it's taken out. Om surprised more people haven't gone down the kiplauf path
