Tweet *Guest post from Tony Smotherman, aka The Travelin’ Hunter. You’re more likely to make an accurate shot lying prone with your day pack as a rest and taking your time rather than standing on the side of a steep hill  trying to shoot offhand at a moving animal on the other side of the valley.

Tweet One of the most common questions we receive is how to disassemble and clean the Bergara B14 rifle’s bolt. To disassemble the bolt, first you will need to remove the bolt from the receiver by depressing the bolt release on the left side of the action. With the bolt release button held down, pull […]

Tweet My parents are getting ready to move. The reason I tell you this is because as I was helping them rummage through the attic of the house where I did most of my growing up, I came across a relic from my childhood. It was nothing but a banged-up “play” long rifle, much like […]

Let’s face it ladies and gentlemen of the hunting and shooting arena, we don’t need much of […]

Tweet We honestly can’t say you need to shoot this or that caliber rifle for the big game you plan to hunt. We only give suggestions as to your region of the country. I hunt in the southeast where the woods are dense and long shots are rare. I hunt in the west where the […]

Tweet It’s easy to run down to your local big-box hunting store and find a suitable rifle. Most of them sell the name brands we all know – Remington, Browning, Ruger. And these rifles are fine for shorts shots at deer and a trip or two to the range each year. But if you really […]

Tweet Here at Bergara USA we bed our rifles utilizing a combination of aluminum pillar installation and Marine Tex bedding. Today we will cover pillars and how they affect your rifle. The benefits of using pillars when bedding a rifle in to a stock are more than just accuracy driven; reliability plays an important factor […]
