Bergara HMR in .308 thoughts.

[RichardCranium]

Shooters,
I just picked up a Bergara HMR in .308 and put a Vortex Diamondback 4-16x42 optic on it. Thoughts on this setup? What to look out for? Hints and advice and what can be expected. Keep in mind that with this setup I wanted something practical/tactical.

Still haven’t gotten my all setup to shoot, but from what I have gathered if the accuracy is wonky the mini chassis could’ve gotten painted over in one man’s instance and the pro bolt is an upgrade for reloader’s. Take this with a grain of salt because it was read off the internet a while back so I could be misremembering.

Check that your rings are evenly torqued. The front looks like it's a bit torqued more on the left side? Maybe not a huge deal but I'm a bit analretentive! Oh and have fun with it!

You should have a decent shooter on your hands. I haven’t heard of a bad one yet. My HMR Pro was 1/4moa out of the box with Hornady Match (6mm in my case) I'll definitely buy another one when it comes time to put my son in his next rifle.
Break it in right. Shoot the snot out of it.

I have one in 6.5 CM that shoots great, sub 1/2 MOA with my handloads.

Looks good go shoot it and let us know how it does.

Don't worry about the caliber, rather your personal results and how much you enjoy shooting it.

Does anyone know which Limbsaver air model fits the stock perfectly ?

Just got one in “20 .308. Great shooter. Target from the factory had a 11mm group with factory ammo ><

I have a HMR Pro I got with only a 5 shot group of sight-in rounds through it for $1,000 a couple months ago. Haven't shot it yet -- waiting on Amazon to send me the correct m'fing Seekins scope base. I ordered a SA twice and they send me LA bases. Not that hard, haha.

Wonderful rifles. Shoot it and report back. I want to read your experience.

Amazing rifle. Clean crisp trigger pull. Love the adjustable cheek rise. Cycle is butter smooth. I couldn't be happier. Now to develope the load this rifle prefers. Right now I'm seeing good results with 168gr Sierra MatchKing at 43.7grains. .10 off the lands but still dialing it in.
