Thread: bergara single shots

Theyre just as heavy as most bolt action rifles cut to the same length, heavier in some cases.. I know what I would find "handier"

And here I was thinking that an innocent thread about Bergara singleshots (of all things) would be safe from your .375 H&H pics. Clearly not.

Compared to a bolt action, when you cut one to minimum length, you end up with an 'action length worth (for given caliber)' more barrel, for the same OAL gun. That has its appeal I guess, over a repeater.

Bought a 20” Bergara BA13 .308 a few months back.
Really impressed, was getting average of 0.7” at 100 meters prone.
The weight is great as it helps keep the rifle down when fired. The kick is not bad for a .308
I’ll try again once my Waitaki Engineering suppressor turns up, as I expect to get better accuracy.
100% recommended.
