The Bergara Premier Barreled Action (Bergara part no. BPBA1765) pairs a bolt-action Premier receiver with a 24-inch, number 5.5-contour stainless steel barrel chambered in 6.5mm Creedmoor, giving builders and gunsmiths a match-grade foundation for a custom precision rifle. Bergara cuts the barrel with a 1:8-inch twist to stabilize the heavy-for-caliber bullets 6.5 Creedmoor shooters favor at long range, and the stainless construction resists corrosion through repeated cleaning and weather exposure. Selling as a barreled action rather than a complete rifle, it is built to drop into the chassis or stock of a shooter’s choice, skipping the barrel-fitting step of a full custom build. It is a natural fit for precision rifle series competitors and long-range hunters who already have a preferred stock or chassis in mind.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this include a stock or chassis? No, this is a barreled action only, the receiver and barrel assembly, meant to be paired with a separate stock or chassis.

What is the number 5.5 contour? It refers to the barrel’s taper profile, a stiffer, heavier contour that Bergara pairs with this 24-inch 6.5 Creedmoor build for long-range stability.
