Overview
The Bergara Premier LRP (Long Range Precision) is a bolt-action precision rifle built on the Bergara Premier action with a stainless steel match-grade barrel, designed for competitive long-range shooting and tactical applications. The rifle features a Bergara-branded aluminum chassis manufactured in partnership with XLR Industries, CNC machined from solid 6061-T6 aluminum with an AR-15 style grip, adjustable length of pull, and adjustable comb height. The TriggerTech trigger with Frictionless Release Technology provides a crisp, consistent pull. The 24-inch threaded barrel with 5/8x24 threading accepts standard muzzle devices and suppressors. Feeding from AICS-compatible detachable box magazines, the Premier LRP comes with a factory guarantee of sub-1.0 MOA accuracy with match-grade ammunition, though most examples significantly outperform this specification.
