The Blaser R93 Tactical is a German sniper rifle, used heavily by the German and Dutch police forces. It is manufactured by Blaser, a subsidiary of the Swiss SIGARMS company. It is a bolt-action sniper rifle, chambered for 7.62mm NATO, .300 Win Magnum and .338 Lapua. It is designed to send high weight/length projectiles (factory match) into very small groups without difficulty (sub .3 MOA). An uncommon part of its design is that it is a straight-pull bolt-action rather than a turn-bolt, which allows for much faster follow-up shots.
