The R8 Black Edition combines a robust black-brown synthetic stock with weatherproof cocoa leather inlays for a refined look. Blaser’s signature Professional Success thumb-hole stock gives active hunters the crucial edge for continuous successful shooting. The R8 Professional Success Black Edition stock provides a completely relaxed posture of shooting hand and arm, regardless of the aiming position. Thus, vexatious flinching is almost completely eliminated by itself providing the most important preparation for the accurate shot in any hunting conditions.

Sporting shooters have been using special rifle stocks for decades. They know that you shoot much more accurately with them! So why should not hunters use the best stock available, too?
