Must be a regional thing. I have no less than four shooting companions shooting 30" and 32" versions. As already stated the standard grade wood is pretty poor. Everyone I know save one fellow, have upgraded woods that are just OK in my estimation. A buddy invited me to shoot his 32" standard version at our local five stand. The trapper threw impromptu combinations of true and report pairs and I never missed a bird. Pretty unusual (as far as the clean run grin ) but more unusual is my go to SC guns are all high rib versions. Anywho…... I thought the gun handled fine, had a pretty darn good trigger and the recoil never bothered me. I typically shoot 1300-1350 1 oz loads. My buddy shot his 30" version to a win in AA at the last North Central Regional.....needless to say he likes his pretty well. I've heard that Blaser customer support is pretty good. Lot's of guys shooting F3's in my neighborhood too.
