Blaser R8 Field Evaluation

Does that spartan adapter fit a regular spartan bipod or only the Blaser proprietary spartan like bipod? As similar as they look I have been told they are different but no one has ever been able to confirm that. The adapter on the fore end of that rifle looks like the Blaser part and not a typical Spartan gunsmith adapter.
 
Man that is a light stock and barrel for it being the heavier profile. Pics of R8 Ultimate Carbon and it’s only 5oz lighter. The barrel is a 6.5 PRC 23”. Bolt is same weight.

Looks like the trigger/magazine were weighed separately (with the bolt), so not included in the 51.3oz. What does your Ultimate Carbon stock weigh without the trigger/magazine?
 
I shot my 30-06 R8 today. It hard not to love that rifle. Super accurate and fast action. I’ll burn through ammo like I’m shooting a semi-auto. The 30-06 does have some recoil though with a carbon stock.
