Specifications

What Makes the BMR-X Different

• Full-Size Precision Ergonomics in Rimfire Form: The adjustable stock with vertical pistol grip and flat forend mirrors Bergara’s centerfire precision rifles, giving you the same control and comfort whether you’re dialing distance or running drills in competition.
• 30 MOA Rail Included: No need to source a separate mount or rail for long-range rimfire setup. You get precision scope mounting out of the box, ready for 50-yard zero and beyond.
• Match Chamber Standard: Every BMR-X ships with a match chamber — tighter tolerances than commercial rimfire chambers — to maximize accuracy potential from quality ammunition.
• Adjustable Trigger, No Gunsmith Required: The Bergara Performance Trigger adjusts from 2 to 4 lbs with nothing more than an Allen key. Factory-set around 3 to 3.5 lbs, it’s crisp, consistent, and reviewers consistently rate it on par with premium aftermarket triggers costing significantly more.
• B-14 Action with Remington 700 Footprint: Built on the largest aftermarket ecosystem in bolt-action history. Swap stocks, chassis, triggers, and mounts freely — thousands of compatible options exist, and you own that flexibility for life.
• Steel or Carbon — Your Choice: The Steel version weighs 5.5–6.5 lbs and delivers unwavering rigidity for precision. A Carbon-barreled BMR-X is also available for reduced carry weight on longer days afield or in competition.

Bergara’s Barrel Story

Bergara barrels are forged in the Basque region of northern Spain — a town and gunmaking heritage that spans centuries. Every Bergara barrel follows a rigorous 5-step process: straightening to ensure bore alignment, deep-hole drilling for precision, three-spindle diamond honing to a mirror finish that reduces friction and drag, button rifling with carbide buttons held to less than .0002″ groove diameter deviation for unmatched consistency, and high-temperature stress relieving to lock in accuracy for the life of the rifle. That process transforms raw steel into barrels that shoot like hand-lapped customs — yet cost a fraction of custom gunsmith work. When your BMR-X ships, that barrel has already proven its capability in Bergara’s own quality control. The sub-MOA guarantee isn’t marketing; it’s backed by decades of barrel manufacturing excellence.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the BMR-X good for competitive rimfire?

Absolutely. The BMR-X was designed with competition shooters in mind. The adjustable stock, match chamber, tunable trigger, and included 30 MOA rail give you all the tools used in PRS-style rimfire matches and bullseye competition. The 18″ barrel and featherweight profile (5.5–6.5 lbs) make it easy to manage recoil impulse and keep your sight picture steady between shots.

Can I swap the stock or use a different trigger?

Yes. The BMR-X uses the Remington 700 footprint, which means you can drop it into any R700-pattern stock or chassis. You can also replace the trigger with any Remington 700 compatible trigger. That said, the factory Bergara Performance Trigger is crisp and adjustable — most shooters find no need to upgrade.

What ammunition should I use?

The BMR-X’s match chamber is optimized for quality .22 LR ammunition — think CCI Standard Velocity, Federal Match, or Lapua Midas+. Bulk or high-velocity rounds will still work, but match-grade ammunition will show the full accuracy potential of your rifle. Always use .22 LR; the chamber is not suitable for .22 Magnum or .22 Hornet.

Does it come with a scope or mount?

The BMR-X ships with a 30 MOA Picatinny rail already installed — no purchase or installation required. You’ll need to source a rimfire-appropriate scope and rings; most shooters use 0 MOA rings with the included rail to take advantage of that built-in elevation for 50-plus yard distances.

How accurate is the sub-MOA guarantee?

Bergara backs every BMR-X with a promise: straight from the box, your rifle will print groups under 1 inch at 100 yards using quality factory ammunition. That’s measured from center to center of the widest shots in a group. If your rifle doesn’t meet that standard, Bergara will service it at no cost to you.

Is there a carbon-fiber version?

Yes. Bergara also offers the BMR-X Carbon with a lightweight carbon-fiber barrel, reducing overall weight for hunters or competition shooters who prioritize carry comfort. The Carbon version maintains the same accuracy guarantee, trigger, and ergonomics — just with a shade less heft over a day afield.
