Question: I need explanation on the Blaser process. So this is the stock, then you need a receiver, bolt, and a barrel, correct? À la carte?

Kinda correct
This is the stock receiver - its the serialized part
You then need a bolt housing (RH or LH), a bolt face (I can help you with this, or you can use the chart below) and a barrel.
Super easy build, you can essentially have 10 guns in 1

What is the weight of the stock? Are you including the trigger group in the weight?

Have you weighed the Rifle in the 243 configuration (minus scope and mount)?

Thanks.

For the first time in my life I believe I got in early enough on something. I began building my Blaser battery over 10 years ago. They are incredible pieces of engineering. Nothing better that traveling 1000s and 1000s of miles with it all broken down in pieces, putting it all back together out of its tiny secure case and everything being perfect.

Around 6-7 lbs with a 20" barrel
The weights on blasers are flexible, changing the bolt handles alone moves it a couple ounces.
Pretty much all r8 builds with a std contour barrel are sub 7 lb

Is the 2.0 a steel or aluminum chassis? The earlier stocks had either option. Additionally, can we buy the stock LOP modules and change them out ourselves?

Is the 2.0 compatible with my existing r8 barrels, bolts, and trigger housing?

Do you need a trigger housing as well or no?

The stock/receivers come with a trigger housing. I noticed on my 2.0 that they changed the trigger/mag housing to plastic. It’s aluminum on my older ones. The old ones interchange without issue.
