Frozen and Shaken

For nearly ten years, Blaser has been developing rifle scopes. This was a logical step, as scopes and scope mounts are essential pillars for ensuring long-term shooting precision. The two scope lines, B1 and B2, differ in many ways in terms of design, but when it comes to production, the optics experts in Wetzlar make no distinctions: all scopes must undergo the strictest quality controls and rigorous testing.

Optical products used in hunting—especially rifle scopes—must always perform at the highest level. Light conditions, temperatures, or mechanical stress can push them to their limits when it comes to durability, precision, and optical perfection, because hunting takes place all over the world.

The team in Wetzlar knows what hunters demand. Any future Blaser scope must therefore qualify for its intended use. Long-term cold tests and hundreds of shock loads are just two of the many parameters that must be met or passed before the scope enters production. There, experienced experts meticulously and passionately assemble each scope by hand. Among other steps, lenses are cleaned, the inversion system adjusted, the reticle aligned, and the scope is filled with nitrogen. Only after passing a final inspection is the Blaser scope ready for the hunt!
