The Rifle is a Blaser R8 with a 6,5x55 pipe on it. The bipods are from Harris and the scope is a Leupold 4,5x14-50 Mark 4 ill.

Ha ha , Yes it is. i contacted my gunpusher and Blaser in Germany, in December last year.I wanted a Camo version of the R8, but was told both places, that it vere not on the production plan and they had no plans in that direction.
I got pissed off when i in May opened my hunting magazine and found it in camo. Again i contacted Blaser telling them what i thought about it. 
Two days later i was contacted by my dealer  (that aparently heard from Blaser)  He was willing to take the green one back at full price and sell me the camo version for the 550$ the camo was more extra.
So that was good service i think.   Thunbs Up

Very nice. I also appreciated the pix showing the Danish countryside. I once did a bike trip from Copenhagen to Esbjerg and really enjoyed the roads and scenery along the way. Where do you go hunting?

Thank´s for all the nice comments.Smile

Jono MT:  WOW, a bike trip from Copenhagen to Esbjerg. Now, was it a motorbike or a bicycle trip? I mean it's a nice ride on a motorbike ,  but even prettyer on a bicycle. You have to be in pretty good shape though, there's app. 180-190 miles .
How long is that ago Jono?         
I am hunting on my own land at our little old farm, we got app. 25 acres to it, there´s a couple of lakes ( we just got permission to make another lake) and a great nature for hunting.  It is locatet in (to me) one of the prettiest areas in DK. West on an island called Fyn. 

Mike 650:  The pictures are taken with a Sony Cybershot 


I took the rifle to the range last night, to see if it could more than look good.
After sighting it in it just performed like i wanted it to. 
Here is a foto of the last six shots, fired at a 200 meter ( 218 yards )distance sitting on the flor and using my bipods.

You didn't have to put a gun in the picture to make us jealous of your new piece of land.  Wink

Nice looking gun.
