Bergara BMR 22LR

Anyone have one of these?

I just ordered a carbon fiber barreled version last night. Was in between it and a Christensen Arms Ranger 22 but there have been some issues with extraction it seems with the CA Ranger, and I just ridded myself of an extraction weak bolt 22 in my Savage FV-SR. Got tired of rebending the cir-clip extractor spring every 100 rounds, shame because the FV-SR was very accurate.

The BMR 22 Carbon looks like a dandy woods gun at 5.2 lbs. I ordered a Meopta Optika5 2-10x42mm with parallax adjustment down to 10 yards which should put the rifle under 7lbs. full up.

There are some definite nice features on the Bergara being that it uses Rem700 trigger designs, so excellent triggers are only a thin pocketbook away . I'll see how she shoots and how the stock trigger is (which I've heard are actually pretty serviceable) and if a nice TriggerTech is in it's future.

Pictures and a range report is expected. Congratulations. Sounds like a great set-up.

I've seen them at Scheel's and run the bolt and was impressed, so I'm looking forward to your range report.

Pictures should be in the next week or so and range report following. Have to get through planting season first.
