[QUOTE=".300 Dakota, post: 2289929, member: 106514"] Last Bergara I bought wouldn't group 1.5". About 1.63" was as good as I could get, and generally 1.75" - 2". This was a new 7mm-08 Ridge model. Tried adding a pressure point along the barrel channel and groups went to over 2". The one before that I I had was a .270 Timber, which was a beautiful gun, and shot generally around 1 MOA, with one exceptional load around 0.60". It was as heavy as an anvil it felt like. Just not a Bergara fan anymore. No experience, but read shooting instructors say the Premier models have extraction and ejection problems after a day or two in the field under adverse conditions. I'd sooner have a Browning for comparable money if I couldn't find a Fierce or Seekins in a caliber I liked. I think the CVA single shots with Bergara barrels are more accurate than the B14s... In my limited experience they have been for sure. They were influenced by Remington I know, so they must have shared notes on cost savings during QA. [/QUOTE]
