[QUOTE="PlasticJesus, post: 1897285, member: 111351"] Disclaimer, I own a Bergara Premiere Highlander (NIB auction for $1200). I was in a similar boat comparing numerous guns for 300WM, two of them were above Bergara and CA Ridgeline. I ended up doing a tremendous amount of research and found that the main disadvantage the CA had was the CF wrapping on the barrel was a pretty common issue, and that their customer service team had left room for improvement. This might have changed, and you are looking at a barrel without the CF wrapping, the fit and finish are very similar for the two though I think Bergara has the lead on their action and barrel. I will say this, the action on my Bergara is wonderful to cycle, and when shot by hands better than mine, was sub .5moa to a long distance. My application sounds different as this is a hunting rifle and weight is a big concern, but the gun that actually got the closest was the Seekins Havak Pro Hunter 2 though the price made it out of range. Maybe look at current pricing on the Havak Bravo? All that are listed are great factory guns that will be fun to shoot, don't overthink it. [/QUOTE]
