About
What it is, and why it matters
The Blaser D99 is a premium German break-action multi-barrel hunting rifle built as a modular combination-gun platform. Offered as a Drilling (two 20-gauge shotgun barrels over a rifle barrel), a Duo over-under double rifle, and a three-barrel Trio, it chambers rifle cartridges from .222 Remington and .243 Winchester up to 9.3x74mm R alongside 20/76 shotshells. It uses a vertical block lock, a double-lock system for hesitation-free follow-up shots, free-floating Thermo Stabil barrels that hold point of impact, and a handcrafted Caucasian walnut stock.
Blaser's D99 lets a hunter reconfigure a single receiver from a drilling into an over-under double rifle by swapping barrel sets, and its walnut stocks are graded from 3 to 11 by the figure of the Caucasian wood.
The D99 is Blaser's flagship break-action platform, replacing the earlier D99-generation drillings. Barrel sets are interchangeable and the Duo double-rifle configuration is popular for European driven game and dangerous-game calibers such as 9.3x74mm R. An optional stock-mounted recoil absorber filled with tungsten granules reduces felt recoil by roughly 20 percent.

Trajectory
What the round does downrange
Solved from the muzzle figures and the bullet. The dashed rule is the effective range on the record, and the crosses are the steps the solver returned.
No load solved for this record yetThe flight path is computed from a cartridge and a bullet. This record has no ammunition filed against its chambering, so there is nothing to solve.
