Bergara Crest 22cm 20" 5-Round Rifle

The Bergara Crest 22cm 20" 5-Round Rifle is a precision bolt-action platform built for shooters who demand sub-MOA accuracy and field-proven reliability. Designed for hunters, tactical marksmen, and law enforcement precision teams, this rifle bridges the gap between compact maneuverability and long-range performance. The 20-inch barrel delivers velocity and sight radius advantages while maintaining a lighter overall profile ideal for sustained fieldwork or vehicle-mounted operations. At 9.25 lbs, the Crest offers shooters the balance of capability without fatigue penalty during extended shooting sessions or tactical deployments.

Bergara's Crest line leverages cold-hammer-forged barrel construction and a rigid action geometry engineered for tighter lock-up and minimal harmonic deviation. The five-round magazine capacity prioritizes precision over volume, a deliberate choice that reduces powder-charge variables across consecutive shots and ensures consistent ballistic performance critical in precision work. The 22mm action diameter provides a compact receiver footprint while maintaining sufficient material for proper scoping solutions and accessory mounting. Precision-rifle shooters will recognize the benefit of this design: reduced receiver weight distribution means more flexible stock options and easier integration with tactical furniture without sacrificing inherent accuracy.

Law enforcement precision marksmen and long-range hunters will find the Bergara Crest 22cm 20" platform immediately compatible with industry-standard 22mm action accessories, optic rings, and tactical rail systems. The compact 20-inch configuration excels in crowded shooting environments, vehicle support positions, and building-entry scenarios where barrel length affects maneuverability. This rifle pairs effectively with modern precision optics (1-6x or 3-12x magnification ranges) and fits standard tactical stocks without gunsmithing. Whether serving in a duty precision role or backcountry hunting application, the Crest delivers the accuracy reputation Bergara has earned across military and civilian competitive platforms.
