A few weeks ago I was talking to my buddy about the Ruger 10/22. I mentioned how I always wanted one but was leery on buying a new one. The last two new Rugers I bought have had to go back to the mother ship and were deemed non repairable. Sort of lost confidence in the brand. Not bad mouthing them....it is what it is.
My buddy told me to check out the Bergara BXR. "Never heard of them".
He sends me the web link. Dang!!! These things appear to be a lot of bang for the buck. To boot the price is very reasonable.
Made in Georgia. They are clones of the Ruger 10/22. Many Ruger parts are interchangeable including the mags. Loaded with quality features. Factory tuned trigger pack with a crisp 3 1/2 # pull..... 4140 Cr Mo fluted barrel that is threaded at the muzzle for the suppressor crowd...... Bentz match chamber.....Nitride coated bolt. ....quick detach sling cups on both sides of the stock. ....LOP adjustable, solid poly stock that is free floated on the barrel. Integrated pic rail in the receiver.
A couple weeks later I'm a proud owner. I gave it the cursory cleaning and made a range trip this morning. Got a rough sight in @25 yards. Moved a new target out to 50 yards. Wind picked up something fierce. I'll do the best I can. Started at the top bull and got a pattern. Made an adjustment and moved to the middle target. By the time I made the final adjustment and got to the bottom bull the wind was ripping and the target was bouncing around. Oh well....it is in the area. Be better days in the future.
Rifle shot excellent without a bobble. For less than $600 OTD......a bunch of bang for the buck. Glad I got it.
