About this product
The Bergara Premier Competition BPR25-6CM is a production-level precision rifle chambered in 6mm Creedmoor designed for PRS competition and long-range precision shooting. It features a 26-inch heavy contour stainless steel barrel mated to an MPA BA competition chassis with a TriggerTech Special trigger. This rifle delivers match-ready performance straight from the factory with a 10+1 capacity AICS magazine system.
What is the Bergara Premier Competition BPR25-6CM used for?
This rifle is built specifically for Precision Rifle Series (PRS) competition and long-range target shooting out to 1,200 yards. The 26-inch heavy contour barrel provides optimal velocity for the 6mm Creedmoor cartridge, while the MPA chassis offers unlimited adjustability for positional shooting. The threaded 5/8×24 muzzle allows for suppressor mounting, making it suitable for both suppressed and unsuppressed competition use.
How does the Bergara Premier Competition BPR25-6CM compare to the Stevens 334 Rifle?
The Bergara Premier significantly outperforms the Stevens 334 in precision shooting applications, particularly at distances beyond 500 yards. The Bergara's 26-inch heavy barrel provides 150 fps more velocity than the Stevens 334's 20-inch barrel in .308 Win, and the MPA chassis offers far more adjustability than the Stevens' basic synthetic stock. However, the Stevens 334 costs $700 versus the Bergara's $2,643, making it a better choice for entry-level hunters on a budget.
What does it weigh and what are the dimensions?
The rifle weighs 12.7 pounds with an overall length of 46 inches and barrel length of 26 inches. The heavy contour barrel measures 0.936 inches at the muzzle, providing exceptional rigidity for consistent harmonics. The MPA chassis adds 3.2 pounds to the total weight but delivers rock-solid stability for off-hand and barricade shooting positions.
Who is this NOT for?
This rifle is not suitable for hunters needing a lightweight carry rifle or beginners on a tight budget. The 12.7-pound weight makes it impractical for mountain hunting, and the $2,643 price point puts it well above entry-level options like the Stevens 334. It's also overkill for casual plinking or short-range shooting under 300 yards.
What's in the box?
The rifle ships with one 10-round AICS-pattern magazine and the complete MPA BA Competition Chassis system. Bergara includes all necessary tools for chassis adjustment, including hex keys for buttstock length-of-pull and cheek riser modifications. The package does not include optics, bipod, or suppressor, which are essential for competition use.
Is the Bergara Premier Competition BPR25-6CM worth it at $2642.99?
At $2,643, this rifle delivers exceptional value for serious PRS competitors who need match-ready performance without custom gunsmithing costs. The combination of Bergara's premium barrel, MPA chassis, and TriggerTech trigger would cost over $3,500 if built separately. For hunters or casual shooters, consider the Stevens 334 in .243 Win at under $700 instead.

Frequently asked questions
- Is it compatible with AICS magazines?
- Yes, the Bergara Premier Competition uses standard AICS-pattern magazines. It ships with one 10-round metal magazine, and accepts any AICS magazine from manufacturers like Accuracy International, Magpul, or MDT. Magazine compatibility is one of the reasons this platform dominates PRS competition.
- Does the muzzle thread accept suppressors?
- The 5/8×24 threaded muzzle accepts most .30 caliber suppressors and muzzle devices. I've mounted both SilencerCo Omega 300 and Dead Air Nomax suppressors without issues. Always check suppressor concentricity with an alignment rod before firing suppressed.
- How long does shipping take to Montana?
- Firearms shipping to FFL dealers in Montana typically takes 3-5 business days via UPS or FedEx. All shipments require signature confirmation and transfer through a licensed FFL holder. We recommend contacting your local FFL before ordering to confirm transfer fees and availability.
- Can I return it if it doesn't shoot well?
- Firearms returns are limited to manufacturer defects verified by Bergara's warranty department. We recommend testing with match-grade ammunition like Hornady 108gr ELD-M before evaluating accuracy. Most Bergara barrels shoot sub-MOA with quality ammunition—if yours doesn't, contact Bergara directly for warranty evaluation.
