I snagged one on Monday just because I could finally find a great rifle in 6mm Creedmoor. I love that cartridge and the industry has left it behind even though it’s very popular among predator hunters and competition shooters. Finally, I have a hunting companion to go with my PRS rifle.
Have you had a chance to try it out? I’m on the fence about getting a bergara sierra in 30-06 would love to know what your experience is like with yours
You should consider doing your grouping drills on squares or triangles. Aiming at the same spot on a circle with the center dot is harder to repeat POA.
Maybe he is. You can aim at the very top, bottom, or sides of a circle. Maybe not quite as precise as a point, but better than the randomness of a black hole. Your point is well taken.
What's the bedding like in that stock? Is it pillar bedded or does it have an aluminum chassis under the synthetic's? I can't find info or breakdown videos anywhere on that. Looking at getting the 7PRC as well. Thanks!
Got mine in 7prc also. Gave it a good cleaning, after the first fouling shot it hasn’t shot over an inch group. Best being .23. Using 175gr. eldx projectiles, 7828 and N560.
I have a B14 Wilderness Ridge .308, my next bolt gun is going to be a 30-06 to replace my old Winchester model 70 30-06 that I regrettably sold. I was going to buy another Model 70, but after seeing this and knowing how much I like my Bergara .308, this is now the rifle I’m replacing the Model 70 with. Bergara rifles have become one of my favorite rifle brands hands down.
I just picked this rifle up in 300 PRC and love it. My total set up is less than 11lbs. Does it kick a little? Yep, but not any worse than my old 700 BDL in 280 Rem. Perfect all around hunting rifle that can dabble in long range target shooting.
epikarms did a great review on the Hera H7. WTW doesn't really review anything, basically just shoots groups off a bench. Jim does a fine job, but so does epikarms. Gavin is too booshie for a lowly howa.
This looks a lot like Bergara's version of the CVA Cascade LRH. Same parent company, so it makes sense. Bergara if you want R700 intercompatibility, CVA if you want to save a little money, want a mag off the bat, or prefer the 60 degree bolt or the aesthetics.
Would I choose the Wilderness, NO! I did choose the Timber because it is offered in Left Handed" had a 24" barrel and in 30-06 (OMG, NOT THAT). 6.5PRC was not offered and the .308 only had a 20" inch barrel and I wanted the best velocity from large bullets out to a max of 400 yards. Guess I just chose the most obsolete out dated platform but very happy with my purchase.
308 is supposed to have a shorter barrel, it makes up for the barrel with higher pressure in it’s specifications. If your hand loading though 06 is certainly the way to go, in a modern rifle there’s no reason to not run an 06 at modern pressures.
They offer the wilderness Sierra in left hand and 30-06. It does have a 22” barrel but that is one of the things that sets this rifle apart, they shave 2” off the typical barrel lengths to make it a little more compact, light and a better suppressor host
@@Helfirearms Nope, they do not offer the sierra in 30-06 left handed, it is offered for right handed though. Would have considered the .308 or 6.5PRC but both of those barrels are only 20".
I love Bergara and this Sierra looks great. I only wish it came in some of the "in between" calibers, like 6.8 western, 280 AI, or even 300WSM, for my type of hunting.
@@K-bob_45 280ai comes within about 100fps of 7prc with considerably less powder and recoil, fits an additional cartridge in the magazine, and has optimized performance with AVAILABLE powders. Mine pushes 175eldx at 2850 out of a 24” barrel which maintains 1500 lb ft and 2000fps beyond 700 yards. What more does a fella need for hunting in a 7mm? Not saying 7prc isn’t MORE… but what more do you need?
@@K-bob_45 nosler federal Hornady weatherby all make 280ai ammo. But this is the ultimate RELOADER channel… Peterson makes amazing 280ai brass. Norma 280rem fireformed is also excellent . 7prc is definitely available in more factory rifles… that said I’ve not found a factory rifle that exactly suits my desire. I always end up customizing or building custom regardless of the chambering.
I’ve been waiting for this to come to market when it was announced. I feel like a I deserve some credit, because I commented on every single post Bergara made to “make the wilderness terrain in left hand” 😂
I got the Wilderness Thumbhole (should be comparable) in 30-06 with Hornady ECX 168Gr for all hunting from Roe Deer over Wild Boar to Red Deer in Germany
I ordered Wilderness Tumbhole and a spare magazine with 10 rounds, mine will arrive in 15 days and it is in caliber 308, because we all use the same caliber, so when someone manages to buy some quality ammunition, we all have it, unfortunately hand reloading is still not allowed here. when it is, then it will be happy 😊
Looks like a nice unit with some good features for the money . I would also like the .280 Ackley if it was available but could settle for the 7 PRC . QD inserts would also be a must for me .Hunting Elk , moose mostly with enough power to get me out of a dangerous situation. I have bigger custom rifles if I need them
Important to note that the website you showed is the European market site, not US. They come with mag configuration in Europe. Also stainless models and thumbholes.
@donrowan760 I'm in same boat, looking to get the Grayboe M5 Hunter bottom metal and an AICS pattern mag from redhawkrifles. Mine shoots 1/2 MOA with factory 55gr VMAX,running suppressed at 3400fps.
I wonder if the bigger calibers have more barrel lenght?... I'd rather have a 24" 6.5 cm over a 20" 6.5 prc!... Bergara is one of those brands when you hear about constantly putting out good products
That is what I wondering about. I'm seeing all these shorter barrel offerings but there is no free lunch. If you aren't into brakes and may or may not run a supressor even a 22 inch barrel isnt a true 22 inches with a thread protector. I see a lot of the manufactures doing this.
I’m with you 100%. It’s almost a joke that this isn’t standard. I also much prefer less bolt lift than 90 degrees. This should also be standard. These companies that keep just making Remington 700 copies should be ashamed of themselves. At least try to be better maybe?
They haven’t made their way to Australia yet, however I’m a lefty and am keenly waiting. Have a Tikka Lite 308WIN (excellent rifle) would like a Sierra 308WIN mounted with LPVO for hunting feral pigs, cats, foxes, goats and dogs, would then dedicate my Tikka to night shooting mounted with a thermal and the Bergara as my daytime rifle.
Looking at this rifle or the Timber in .30-06. Prefer a 24" barrel, but want the ability to fit a detachable magazine. A detachable on the Timber might be viewed as sacrilege, but being able to use five or ten round magazines is a big plus for me. All my present .30-06 rifles are military collectors, and I want a scoped rifle for my old eyes. Try looking through the leaf sight of a 1903 Springfield and you know what I mean.
As someone who is a left hand shooter and wanting to try something different than a Savage as a rifle (even though I like both of them that I have) when I saw this was coming out from Bergara I have been pretty excited but also waiting patiently for them to FINALLY become available online and hopefully 🤞🏻 in stores so that I can handle one. I also want a rifle with a threaded barrel which made the choices even more limited for me. Pretty much Savage, Christensen Arms, some Gen 1 Ruger American 🇺🇸 Predator series, some Tikkas and this Bergara Sierra or the standard HMR. I do plan on ordering one of these in left hand and 7mm PRC to go with my 270 Win and 300 WSM.
I’m trying to decide between this Sierra or the Terrain with the main difference being standard barrel on the terrain vs the fluted barrel on the sierra. The other difference being the terrain has the Bergara mini chassis. Is the mini chassis really that critical for everyday hunting accuracy?
I’m in debate. I want one because it comes in left handed. I have the HMR in 6.5cm, I have a Ridge of course right handed. If I get one I think I’d have to do with a 6.5PRC
Think I wanna spend a little more and get the carbon crest. 6.5 cm for long range and deer. Do you think it's worth the extra $ vs this rifle? Thanks. Love the vids and knowledge...
It’s a great rifle, I own one, but if you want to be accurate with every shot you MUST change the trigger. It’s quite hard, you can drop the pressure only to 980 gr and that’s to much pressure for a hunting rifle.
Front ring is mounted too close to the erector housing, should have been spun 180 degrees, that's not good mounting practices. I do like the looks of the gen 2 Nexus scope though and I like my 22-250 Sierra. One thing I wish they would have done was make the barrel longer, but I'm assuming they were counting on people running them suppressed.
Hi Gavin - you helped me make up my mind in this new Bergara. I’m thinking of 30-06 because of the reloading options available (and I already have all the reloading components). Do you or anyone else have experience with Bergara rifles in 30-06? Good or bad?
I recently bought a new Bergara Stoke in 300 Blackout to work up subsonic handloads for my Mini-Fix and Honey Badger. I was impressed with the rifle but have been completely unable to find additional magazines anywhere… what’s the deal Bergara ?
people are just choked up when they hear 6.5 CM, just plain marketed to death, 6.5 prc not so much. people seem to be a bit shy of the market tricksters after the 7 prc Hornady ammo not even close to their trickery claims on the ammo box. still nice looking rifle, if the quality control comes close to tikka! marketing trust seems to be about the same as the media in politics.
If you wanna pay like $100 instead of over $200 for the bottom metal conversion you can get the Bergara one. I definitely like/recommend doing bottom metal upgrades when called for.
@@danielvalencia6582 Love it! Lifelong Remington 700 hunter, but this one changed me. Smooth action, balanced, light weight. I topped it with a Leupold Mark 4 hd.
I bought 1 of these in 6.5Cm several months ago when they came out. Great deer & antelope gun! I put a 3-12 Burris on mine. Might upgrade to a Triggertech later on.,The stock trigger adjusted down to 2.75lbs on mine. It’s good, but not excellent.
What velocity did you get out of your reload in that gun? lol if this rifle was chambered in 6.5 creed I wasn’t even going to watch. I find it amusing that people still act like 6.5 creed is a drastic improvement over 308, especially on a reloading channel.
6.5 Creedmoor is a pretty good improvement over 308. I'm a 308 fan but 6.5 Creedmoor is just better. 308 can shoot heavier bullets which is great but ballistically the Creed is better.
@@Kentucky.Tactical I think the factory ammo situation is better, for match ammo. If you get any real hunting bullet the bc is typically not great. Probably a bigger emphasis on terminal performance. If you want to see a slippery bullet for 308 look no further than the berger elite hunter 180. Apples to apples I feel like the difference in hit probability between the two is probably not that much when like bullets are used. Using similarly designed bullets the 308 typically retains more energy too
I loved that you admitted the 2 "don't likes" were nitpicks. Excellent video. Loved it. Great content.

3 shots isn't a group. Please go to at least 5 shot groups for accuracy testing, but 10 shot is the best.
Absolutely! I just can’t understand why people accept 3 shot “groups”
More than 3 heats up the barrel causing a loss in accuracy. 5 is definitely better but one must take more time to cool the barrel down.
Most of these rifle companies have their “sub-moa guarantee” based on a 3 inch group.

lol if this rifle was chambered in 6.5 creed I wasn’t even going to watch. I find it amusing that people still act like 6.5 creed is a drastic improvement over 308, especially on a reloading channel.
6.5 Creedmoor is a pretty good improvement over 308. I'm a 308 fan but 6.5 Creedmoor is just better. 308 can shoot heavier bullets which is great but ballistically the Creed is better.
@@Kentucky.Tactical I think the factory ammo situation is better, for match ammo. If you get any real hunting bullet the bc is typically not great. Probably a bigger emphasis on terminal performance. If you want to see a slippery bullet for 308 look no further than the berger elite hunter 180. Apples to apples I feel like the difference in hit probability between the two is probably not that much when like bullets are used. Using similarly designed bullets the 308 typically retains more energy too

If you think that 6.5 is better than .308 for hunting you don’t hunt much

You can tell this guy knows nothing about hunting
Bergara are a trash company. I wouldn't have one of their rifles if it were free.
looks like another piece of plastic crap
