Bergara Rifles was founded in 2004 in the town of Bergara, Spain, which has a long tradition of gun making. The company initially started as a barrel manufacturer, specializing in producing high-quality barrels for firearms. In 2013, Bergara expanded its operations to include complete rifle manufacturing. Leveraging its expertise in barrel production, Bergara began producing precision rifles known for their accuracy and craftsmanship.
In 2015, Bergara entered a partnership with BPI Outdoors, a renowned distributor of firearms and outdoor products. This collaboration helped Bergara gain a stronger foothold in the American market, where it became well-known among hunters, competitive shooters, and precision rifle enthusiasts.
Over the years, Bergara Rifles has earned a reputation for producing high-quality firearms. Its rifles have garnered praise from precision competition shooters, hunters, and industry experts alike for their accuracy, durability, and value.
Scope Mounts for Bergara Rifles
Bergara offers a range of Centerfire and rimfire rifles to choose from, but selecting a base that fits the shooter's needs best can sometimes be a challenge. We are here to help point you in the right direction. Currently, Bergara offers many options for centerfire rifles, but they are all based on 2 actions: the B-14 and the Premier. When it comes to the B-14, things are straightforward as they use the same style scope bases as a Remington 700. Warne offers 2-piece bases in our Maxima and Vapor series that will fit, and there are 1-piece Picatinny rails from our Vapor and Mountain Tech product families that are a great option as well. Regardless of which sub-model of the rifle, if it is a B-14 action, the bases listed below will be the way to go.

Scope Mounts for the Bergara Premier
The other action style Bergara offers for centerfire rifles is called the Premier, and this action has some differences from the B-14. Early versions of the Premier action share the same bases as a Savage round receiver but use larger 8-40 screws. More recent and current versions of the action share the same style bases as a Remington 700 but also use the larger 8-40 style screws. If you are unsure which action you have, look at the rear receiver height in relation to the front. If it matches the front receiver radius and height, then you may have an older model that uses the Savage style bases; if it is slightly lower and has a flatter radius on the rear receiver, it is a current production model.

Mounting a Scope on a Bergara Chassis Rifle for PRS or NRL-Style Precision Rifle Competitions.
Bergara rifles are commonly used in precision rifle competitions like NRL and PRS because of their accuracy. The Bergara Premier Comp Rifle comes from Bergara in an MPA BA Chassis. Although this rifle looks really different in a chassis, it still uses the same bases.
Two popular mounting solutions for the Bergara Premier Comp Rifles.
Some shooters use traditional rings like our Mountain Tech Series Rings , which are lightweight and precision-made. In contrast, others will use the Warne Skyline Precision one-piece mount to take advantage of the ability to attach accessories to the mount rather than the optic, like the Skyline Bubble Level and the Data Card Holder .
When shooting rifles known for their accuracy, like a Bergara rifle, choose a precision scope mount from Warne. Made in the USA for hunters and precision shooters.
