I know the rifle is discontinued but are the barrel sets still being sold or are they going as well?
There's a local Blaser 93 locally in nice condition for $1550 but that might be a waste.

If it has a barrel I would buy it for that and don’t need another.

Maybe 1200 might be more along what I'm thinking more acceptable or maybe I'm stupid.

IMHO, $1,500 for an R93 barrel is a bit much unless it is a semi-weight or octagonal barrel.
I have quite a few R93 barrels, in different chamberings, including a couple in 300 WSM. If you want one of the standard barrels, no sights or saddle mount, chambered for the 300 WSM, I would let one go for $950.

I read the OP as it was a complete rifle. If you can buy a complete R93 for $1,500, run, don't walk, to the shop and get it done.

I bought my blaser r8 with a 7 mag barrel. Traded it for a barrel I did want for the same money.

I'd prefer a LH bolt and 270win or 30-06 308win. Any standard chamber.

I may have an extra LH bolt assembly and standard bolt head. The 270 Win and 30-06 should be among the easiest to find. I might be able to help you locate one if you decide to get the R93.

Gotta luv the R93 System..... If a guy was a mind'ta, he could have an off-road stock for when he was going to drag it through the mud or use it in inclement weather...... Numerous ways to mount optics and with the Blaser Saddle mounts one can vary optics/ barrels and return to zero every time. Barrels can be purchased that have iron sights or not. He could invest in a couple receivers (left and right) bolt heads, magazines and barrels and pretty much cover the spectrum. Excellent Triggers and accuracy. ya! GWB

And it's GeeDubya for the win! He's spot on with his descriptions and thoughts on the Blaser system. There was even rimfire kits available for the R93.
