Blaser R8 Ruthenium

One of the world’s rarest precious metals is the eponym for this top-class hunting rifle boasting an elaborate Ruthenium finish. The DLC (Diamond-Like-Carbon) coating on the trigger, bolt handle ball and bolt head is not only a visual highlight, but also offers protection against the most extreme conditions.
