The Bergara Premier MgLite in 7mm PRC represents a purpose-built integration of advanced materials and precision engineering, designed to deliver consistent performance in an ultralight package. This system addresses critical performance considerations for extended field use, offering a robust platform for demanding engagements.
Key Features
Bergara CURE Carbon Fiber Barrel System
The CURE Carbon Fiber barrel is engineered to mitigate inconsistencies often associated with carbon fiber applications. Bergara’s proprietary, patent-pending carbon weave, reinforced with embedded stainless strands, facilitates efficient heat dissipation and thermal management. This optimization, both mechanical and thermodynamic, ensures the barrel maintains superior rigidity and straightness across sustained firing sequences, yielding reliable shot-to-shot consistency in an ultralight profile.
Bergara Premier Action System
The Premier action incorporates a two-lug design with a separate floating bolt head, ensuring consistent engagement with the action’s lug abutments. A cone-shaped bolt nose promotes smooth, reliable cartridge feeding, while a spring-loaded sliding plate extractor, located within the lower locking lug, provides robust case extraction. The one-piece bolt body, constructed from stainless steel, features a threaded pad for secure bolt handle attachment. Key components, including the bolt head, non-rotating gas shield, and bolt shroud, are Nitrided for enhanced surface hardness, extreme durability, and reduced friction, contributing to self-lubricating properties.
XLR Element 4.0 Magnesium Chassis
The MgLite system integrates the XLR Element 4.0 Magnesium chassis, specifically designed for ultralight precision applications. This modular chassis framework contributes significantly to the rifle’s reduced weight, making it ideal for mobile operations. It is configured with a carbon fiber folding buttstock and a carbon fiber grip for further weight reduction and ergonomic interface. Practical features include a built-in bubble level for cant mitigation and a machined-in RRS 1.5 dovetail (Arca-Swiss) in the forend, facilitating rapid, secure attachment to compatible support systems.
