posted on April 10, 2022

This week, we’re taking a closer look at the Bergara Premier Competition rifle. Initially designed to be a benchrester's best friend, the gun is equally well-suited to hunters targeting varmints and predators from long ranges. A TriggerTech trigger boasts frictionless release technology for effortless accuracy, while an MPA Competition Chassis (Kit B) allows for complete customization to the shooter. The heavy-diameter barrel boasts a Number 7 taper, and is crafted from stainless steel, pairing perfectly with the rifle's Premier action. Learn more about this purpose-built firearm in the video embedded above, hosted by Digital Associate Editor David Herman. MSRP: $2499; bergara.online/us.

Review: Winchester 400 Legend

Winchester’s new 400 Legend is a streamlined, mid-sized straight-wall cartridge intended to fill the gap between its wildly popular 350 Legend and the notorious 450 Bushmaster. It is—in our opinion—a masterstroke of genius.
