Bergara rifles

#1 Post by meles meles »

It seems Bergara have some nice looking switch calibre rifles out - anyone here have any experience of them? It seems Bergara barrels are getting quite a good reputation for quality so it would be interesting to see how their rifles shape up too...

From what I understand Bergara rifles are relatively new to the UK scene, so you might be waiting a while for feedback.

As I understand it the switch barrel system is much the same as the Sauer 200/202 which is a well proven system.

Here is a review from Sporting Rifle if it is of any help: http://youtu.be/t1hgjBm_M4U?t=12m22s.

There were some Bergara rifles on display at the Shooting Show yesterday (Friday 13th) and very nice they looked too, especially considering their price. We were quite taken by their pawdy little lightweight single shot Scout models - could make ideal hunting guns or bug out kit for the forthcoming Zombie Acropolis ;)

and they do something similar with interchangeable barrels - the Apex

and not forgetting their magazine fed, changeable barrel kit too..

Two variations on long established themes...
In 1978 I was told by my grand dad that the secret to rifle accuracy is, a quality bullet, fired down a quality barrel..... How has that changed?
