Overview
The Bergara Premier HMR Pro is a Spanish-made precision bolt-action rifle from Bergara's flagship Premier series. Built around the proprietary two-lug Premier action with a separate floating bolt head and spring-loaded sliding-plate extractor, it pairs a No. 5 fluted 416 stainless steel barrel with Bergara's HMR molded stock and integrated mini-chassis featuring an adjustable cheek piece. Chambered here in 6.5 Creedmoor with a 1:8 twist and threaded muzzle, the rifle feeds from AICS-pattern detachable magazines and is widely used for long-range target shooting and hunting.
