I'm ready to make the jump. I'm looking for the best deal on an R8. Wanting to stay sub $4k. This really puts me in the professional stock, but do also want the removable trigger group. Caliber choice is ideally a 300 Win, but open as I could sell the barrel off and purchase the 300. Really wanting the Savanna tan color stock if in the Professional model as well.

I've checked out GB and GI, best deal going now is $3800ish, in the green professional though.

Any members with a R8 they're looking to move around the target price especially in the Savanna?
 
Try calling Bob Turkovich at Cove Creek Outfitters In PA. They have the best pricing I’ve found on Blaser stuff.

Oh, and when you get and R8, it is pretty easy to collect barrels and a lot harder to let them go.

Thanks. I got a quote from Mad Dog, but $800 over what another dealer had for new. I'll see what CC can do. Thanks again!
 
PM sent. I have an R8 set that I would sell or trade for M70. Bought on AH. Don't know if it is a Savanna but has detachable trigger group and standard barrels (300WM, 6.5CM, 375H&H).

If the stock is tan in color, it's a Savannah.

Somarriba.com is pretty reasonable on their R8 stuff. Cove Creek as well.
I'll keep an eye out for something used. Sometimes it's easier to by the stock used, then add the barrel and bolt. The green professional seems to be the most popular.
 
Cove Creek (Bob) is more than reasonable and they have good service as well .
 
I just saw a great deal on a new 300 WM Professional on Gunsinternational. Comes with a Zeiss Conquest scope, scope mount, and Pelican hard case. You won't find a better deal. $4744.00

Just wanted to say thanks for the excellent customer service. Ordered some 9.3x62 brass and the delivery was a little short. An email through your website Contact Us link was replied to the next day with the tracking info for the correction. Good pricing coupled with great customer service will see returning customers every time. Thanks again!

Made it to Augusta Georgia yesterday for a meeting, hunt bookings are looking good for 2026 and 2027, had a great time on our Alabama safari shot a rutting deer at 200 yards with 7mm PRC near Huntsville and then headed on to Butler Alabama and semi guided my first deer ever shot a very nice broken off 8 point with hunter there and spend a few days on 1100 acres hunting preserve awesome place!

I am righthanded, so not interested in the rifle, but I have a 375 RUM and 350 gr bullet loading data is very hard to come by. If you could reply with information regarding your loads I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you, Ray Boone, Leavenworth, WA

Hello - I was looking at your post from several years ago regarding the Winchester 300 H&H. Any chance you still have the lefty M70 300 H&H for sale?
Thank you, Mike
