Bergara or Christensen? Maybe a Fierce?

lordofbarbeque · Jul 29, 2026

I have experience with a carbon barrel Christianson and was not impressed with cold bore try outs.
I checked out a Fierce at Shotshow once and was not impressed with overall workmanship especially since I would think that you would show your best there.
A knowledgable friend of mine thinks the world of Bergara and uses them in the woods so I would go with a Bergara if given above choices

I would seriously consider a Seekins PH3 vs any of the ones you listed. https://www.seekinsprecision.com/rifles/havak-ph3

Same here, I have a PH2 in 300WM that shoots lights out!
I am now thinking of a PH3 in 6CM.

I have always had good luck with bergara b-14s. I have shot two factory's. I have also used 2 for builds. Smooth bolt, good triggers, everyone of them has been 1/2 moa or better for us. 6.5 prc, 300 prc, 25 SST, and a 22-250 getting turned into a 22gt. The 25 sst was a premier action that I put a preferred prefit barrel on. I don't have anything bad to say about them. I don't have any experience with the other ones you listed so I can't go apples to apples.

I know this is off subject, but where do you find pre fits for your b14? I have a hmr pro in .308 and am looking fir a new barrel. I want one longer that 20 inches.
Thanks

I have a Bergara Premier 6.5CM and have been very happy with it. I bought a barreled action with their CF barrel and it has been great. The action is really nice and it shoots awesome.

I checked out and shot a Fierce at an event and was not impressed.

Seekins hands down, run from CA, Fierce, it isn't worth the gamble. He'll i had no issues with a truck, my brother same truck in the shop all the time. No point on rolling the dice, go Seekins

Mostly preferred barrels. I have used McGowan but I don't like them as much. Their customer service is kind of non existing.

Fierce=NO WAY! Absolutely terrible CS. They do NOT stand behind their own standards. Sample 1of 1.
