The cheekpad is a hard curved Kydex piece that wraps over the top and is somewhat plain in design and appearance. The skeleton style buttstock area has a flush cup receiver as well as a rail mounting area on the bottom where a mono-pod was mounted on this test rifle. The buttplate has a large rubber recoil pad to help manage the recoil and it is mounted on a buttplate that is adjustable for length of pull. The chassis on the LRP is made by XLR Industries and is aluminum and built in conjunction with Bergara. Chassis systems have become increasingly more common and it seems every rifle builder now has one. The Premier LRP comes from the Bergara custom shop located here in the USA and is a chassis style of rifle. Everything else on the LRP is the same between the different cartridges. 308, but a bit shorter barrel than the 6mm Creedmoor. The LRP is available in several different chamberings, but our test rifle was chambered in the popular, and capable, 6.5 Creedmoor which means it has a bit longer barrel than the. Included with the rifle is a small instruction manual and a test target, which we assume was fired at 100 yards, to verify accuracy. Its may not be a Pelican or Storm case, but it is still very nice. There are straps to hold the rifle in place, and a large enough scope area to fit a wide variety of scope options. In this case, we have a factory rifle, but built in their custom shop and it ships in a case that is not custom cut like a Pelican, but is rigid and custom made for the rifle, and it is nice. When you go to the very high end custom built rifles, typically they will ship in something like a Pelican 1750 with cutout foam just for the rifle.

For this review, we had the opportunity to perform a full evaluation on one of their Premier series rifles, known as the LRP chambered in 6.5 Creedmoor. If the Premier series is still not good enough for you, then they also offer a full Custom build service as well. Above the B-14 they have their high end Premier Series of rifles that are actually built here in the USA by a very unique team of rifle builders that are all former Military or DOD. ![]() Bergara has a standard line of rifles known as the B-14 which are very nice factory produced rifles that are built at their factory in Spain. But we are not here to talk about their barrels, we are here to take a look at their rifles. Their barrels are known for their high quality and are used by many custom rifle builders from around the world. Bergara Barrels has been building high quality barrels for many decades at their factory in Bergara, Spain. While the popularity of their rifles has taken off recently, the history of the company is much longer. ![]() 308 Winīergara rifles have really become a big hit here in the United States with a lineup of rifles that have been shown to shoot very well and are built with excellent quality.
