Bergara is what Rem should have been. I suggest a Warne Maxima 2 pcs steel bases and Warne Mountain Tech Rings Low. That's what I have on both my Bergara Ridge's.
Great scope I use one on my CVa paramount 40 cal.
I found a 6.5 bergara a couple years back that was new never fired. A buddy wanted one so I sent the info to him and he bought it.
That is a sweet shooting gun. I shot a 4 shot group that measured .75 and that was with the first shot being pulled a little (the trigger got me). The other 3 were around .35
Needless to say it's def a shooter and I wouldnt be afraid to buy a bergara any day of the week!!

Yep, they are heavier than you might expect. Be sure to pick one up before committing to buy. Word is Bergara knows accuracy is what butters its bread and they are doing a good job at it.

The demand for light weight accurate rifles are in high demand. The one Bergara rifle I had was accurate but heavy.
When I choose a rifle for carrying if I plan to do a lot of walking is my mountain rifle in 280.
Bergara needs to build a light weight stainless properly twisted short action rifle similar to a fieldcraft or Kimber montana.
If they build that at reasonable price they would have a winner.
Until then I'll just keep my Tikkas and Remington mountain rifles.

You mean like the 6.2 lb rifles they have had for a couple of years now?

Which one is that you're referring to?
Stainless?
The Premier Mountain rifle is made of stainless steel, has a carbon fiber AG Composites stock and is 6.2 lbs in short action. This rifle has been made since 2017.

I noticed the premier line, especially the mountain. Looks like the only thing stainless is the barrel.
