The Bergara Premier Highlander is a 6.5 Creedmoor bolt-action rifle (brand part no. BPR33-65) built around Bergara’s Premier action for hunters who want match-grade mechanics in a rugged hunting package. Bergara machines the two-lug Premier action with a separate floating bolt head and a cone-shaped bolt nose for smooth feeding, then finishes the number 5 taper barrel in a Cerakote Sniper Gray coating for corrosion resistance. A spring-loaded sliding-plate extractor and a fully nitrided bolt shroud and bolt stop keep the action running smoothly and self-lubricated, while a TriggerTech trigger with Frictionless Release Technology delivers a crisp, consistent break. The two-position safety is built into the trigger assembly so the bolt can be worked and the rifle unloaded even with the safety engaged, and the Woodland Camo stock keeps hunters concealed in the field.
