Bergara Ridge 6.5prc 24" 2-Round Rifle

The Bergara Ridge 6.5 PRC 24" 2-Round Rifle represents a purpose-built precision platform designed for long-range hunters, precision rifle competitors, and tactical marksmen who demand sub-MOA accuracy in a lightweight, fieldable package. The 6.5 PRC cartridge has proven itself in demanding hunting and competition environments, delivering flat trajectories and energy retention beyond 1,000 yards. This rifle exists to fill the gap between heavy bench guns and ultralight carry rifles—offering the precision of a match rifle with the practicality of a hunter's tool.

Built on Bergara's proven B14 action, the Ridge features a rigid yet efficient design that minimizes weight without sacrificing structural integrity. The 24-inch barrel balances velocity and maneuverability—6.5 PRC ammunition achieves optimal pressure levels in this length while keeping overall gun weight to 9.63 pounds. The action uses a controlled-round-feed design with a two-round magazine capacity, allowing for fast magazine changes and reliable feeding under field conditions. The barrel is free-floated to eliminate contact with the stock, ensuring consistent shot-to-shot accuracy critical for both precision shooting and hunting applications where each round must count.

This rifle suits precision rifle shooters preparing for PRS-style competitions, hunters pursuing elk or similar game at extended ranges, and tactical shooters who need verified accuracy beyond 500 yards. The compact 50.5-inch overall length and moderate weight make it suitable for hunting from horseback, off-terrain pack-in situations, or vehicles where transportability matters. The 6.5 PRC chamber accepts factory ammunition from major manufacturers, and the standard Picatinny rail accommodates tactical scopes and precision optics. Proper break-in through fire-forming brass and load development will unlock the rifle's full potential—expect sub-MOA groups with quality ammunition and good technique.
