First Blaser R93

For the longest time I have been really curious about the Blaser R93 rifle. Anyway, I met up with Ron Williams yesterday and bought a Prestige frame from him and, over the next several months, I will be putting a 9,3X62 together. I am looking for a complete right hand bolt assembly including a standard bolt face and some QD socpe mounts. I suspect I will have to order a barrel from Heritage Arms or Hendershots.

If anyone has a bolt assembly or QD mounts for sale, let me know. For you Blaser guys, if you have any tips to pass along, I would appreciate your advice.

Ron is a really good guy and had a lot of good suggestions.

I don't know about the good guy part

, but he is very willing to share his considerable knowledge of firearms and ballistics. His "suggestions" have cost me so much money that wife has a "hit" out on him, right now.

Things are coming together Dave! Talk to us in a couple of years, you'll likely be the owner of multiple barrels and what-not... It is pretty addictive stuff...
