It was for me too. I really wanted to see what the hooplah was about but when I first got into shooting/long range hunting etc it just seemed so far out of touch with what was possible. 5 years ago they were $3200ish. Now that I've been through several rifles etc that would have been a relative bargain, at least from a hunting rifle perspective. Lol. Different rifles for different purposes. The price of any new custom rifle anymore can easily be $4500-$5500. While certainly I wish a few things were a little different on it, I can already tell I won't be selling it and it'll be the rifle I take with me hunting from now on.
Do these require a scope with the rail, or does the Blaser mount have rings built in? Thx.
Blaser mount has rings. You can also get picatinny mounts. In addition, you can now have barrels cut that are screwed into an extension with an integral picatinny mount. The extension is reuseable for when you either burn a barrel out or if you decide to change cartridges.

I had a K95 in 30-06. 5lb rifle. Extremely accurate. Boy did that hurt to shoot. Way more than my 300PRC with a hot load. Anyway I sold it and made $1,000 on it. I was happy.
