Bergara Cima CF Bolt-Action Sporting Rifle

Description

The Bergara Cima CF is built for hunters who want to carry a full-sized bolt-action all day without paying for it in fatigue. At 5.80 pounds, it is the lightest rifle in Bergara’s B-14 lineup, and that figure is the result of deliberate material choices rather than compromises in rigidity. The stock is an RTM carbon fiber sporter — a resin transfer molding process that produces a structure denser and more consistent than hand-layup composites, which matters for bedding stability when temperatures shift between the truck and the glassing knob. The barrel is Bergara’s CURE carbon fiber construction, wrapping a steel core to shed weight while retaining the thermal mass needed to keep point of impact consistent across a cold bore and a follow-up shot.

The chambering is .300 PRC, a cartridge designed around long, high-BC projectiles seated to a short overall length that fits a standard-length action. The 1-in-9″ twist rate is well matched to the heavy, sleek bullets that make .300 PRC useful at extended ranges — lighter or shorter bullets will stabilize comfortably, but this rifle is optimized for the heavier end of what the cartridge is designed to launch. The 22″ barrel gives the propellant sufficient dwell time to develop meaningful velocity without the handling penalty of a longer tube, a practical trade-off for a rifle intended to move through terrain rather than stay on a bench.

The receiver wears a Sniper Gray Cerakote finish, and the spiral-fluted bolt reduces rotational drag and sheds debris. Feed is through a hinged floorplate holding three rounds plus one in the chamber, and the bottom metal is inlet for an M5 DBM conversion, so the rifle can accept AICS-compatible magazines without gunsmithing. Trigger geometry follows the Remington 700 pattern, which means a wide aftermarket of drop-in options exists if the shooter wants to tune pull weight. Length of pull is adjustable via three included quarter-inch spacers.
