That smile after the head shot ! Is what it’s all about ! All my friends are telling me to get a tikka but I can’t get the hmr pro out of my head

I ordered my HMR Pro on Friday. I live in east central NeBRaSKa so I went with the .308.. very excited for a number of reasons but maybe none more so than it’s my first bolt gun!! Thank you for your video.

that smile from headshot was a priceless!! Oh man, that was awesome!!

My HMR Pro is the favorite rifle I’ve ever owned. Absolute tack driver. Bergara knows what they’re doing 😎

Fun fact: _Bergara_ is a Spanish word that roughly translates to “Buy a Savage.” My friend bought the so-called “Pro” model at a near $500 premium over the standard model and all it is is a swirly shaped bolt body and a $3 Krylon paint job. Went to degrease the screw holes to mount the scope base, using 99% alcohol on a q-tip and the storebrand spray paint Bergara uses as a “finish” on their alleged “Pro” model came off instantly. And I’m sure the swirly dog turd bolt body appeals to the same crowd that carries Extreme Shock! ammo and buys “ACOGs” off of the Wish app, but it along with the spray-paint finish certainly does not justify the several hundred dollar price increase over the standard model. Especially when it’s a 3/4 MOA rifle, which isn’t much of an improvement over a $210 TC Compass. In short the Bergara “Pro” model is a *scam.*

My B-14 HMR in 6.5 creed is the best damn rifle I've ever shot, couldn't imagine just how good the pro is. Plus they are built close to where I work here in Georgia!

Notice how the brass dribbles out and in the initial vid of shooting one of the cartridges pops loose before ejection? The extractors are cast and have too large a ball bearing detent hole in them. Put an AD Arms extractor in it and it will cure this issue.

The algorithm hasn’t blessed me with one of your videos in a long time. I had forgotten what a great job you do on reviews. Top notch. Answered every question I have about the Bergara HMR Pro. I am certainly going to order one. Probably in 28 Nosler.

Excellent!

Are you sure that is a 6mm Creedmoor barrel and not a *6ft* Creedmoor barrel?!? That goes on longer than a drunken ex-girlfriend leaving a voicemail.

Great bolt gun. I've tried others & chose the HMR because they also have them for left handed people. This gun is worth every penny.

Awesome videos as always. Thanks so much for all of your hard work and effort to bring us interesting, fun, informative content. Cheers from New Zealand

I wish I could afford something like that or even the ammo. I just shoot 475 meters with my DPMS Orical rested on a bucket with a 2-7x30 Centerpoint scope. But maybe one day when I am done with college and get a decent welding job.

Look at the Ruger American Predator in 6mm Creed or 6.5 Creed. They are lasers and only $400. If you get it make sure you get the stock that uses AICS magazines.

Now I can hit deer from the entrance of the Ranch without even having to drive inside.

The OG HMR is tough to beat, even if paired off against the HMR PRO. In my opinion, the Bergera trigger edges out the Trigger Tech unit (I own both). Both amazing rifles out of the box, but the additional $700 bones saved by going with the OG HMR, it frees up some cash for a high quality base, rings and optic. My HMR is fitted with a Warne 20 MOA steel base, Warne 34mm split steel rings holding true a Steiner T5Xi 3-15x50 scope with the SCR reticle. Chambered in 6.5CM and handloaded 143 grain Hornady ELD-X’s, this setup is my go to rifle for deer...and I’ve got a damn fine selection of rifles to choose from. The additional barrel length made available in the PRO line will certainly aid in stretching out a given cartridge. Love the content. Keep it up bud!

Amazing grouping for that range and wind conditions (550 yds)! It's also amazing how greatly VALUE has increased in bolt action rifles -- more quality and reduced pricing. This is really an excellent value for "realistic" long range shooting (i.e., it's not meant for 2000 yard shooing -- although one could probably get some utility at even that sort of range with it).

I think it's funny how when Ruger came out with the RPR they offered it in .243AMD a lot of people just kinda laughed it off. Now 6mm Creedmore comes out and it's the same idea but can shoot heavier bullets. I get that that makes a big difference bit I'm just thinking it's funny that so many people laughed at the .243. It's one of my favorite calibers.

I like the angle of that bipod, it looks very stable. For shooting groups, like you are, with very good results, I may add, mission accompished.

This guy is definitely radars son..

I lived in Apex/Pittsboro for 15 years! How did I miss this place??

Not sure if it's the ammo you're using (seems to be the ammo that Bergara suggests), but the ejection on this rifle looks very suspect. Spent cases are barely making it out of the action, and you even experienced two failures to eject in the video which you failed to address. I wonder if this is an issue with all Bergaras or just this one rifle/calibre combination?

I hope to pick one up in 300 prc soon

Now I want the PRO too!

Love the Bergara HMR Pro 💯👍🇺🇸

I've never shot te premier action and it looks like a superb rifle. Only problem I see in prs is the extraction that look quite weak and in the video even it doesn't extract the case once or twice. This is also under near perfect conditions. In a match that can cost you time

Bergara rifles are awesome shooters. I have a B-14 hunter in 30/06, and it's a sweet shooter.

I have the B-14 HMR in 308. It is far from impressive. The thing maybe puts 2 out 3 5-shot groups under 1 MOA with the best handloads I've been able to work up for it or factory ammo it likes. I contacted Bergara about it. They fired two 3-shot groups through it (one of which was 0.98 MOA), and sent it back to me without even telling me they were returning it. I was away on vacation and had to pay UPS to hold it so it wouldn't be returned to sender. Anyway, the gun still shoots just as bad as before. I will never buy another Bergara product.

I've never had a primer blow up in the chamber. He mentioned it a couple times like it's a norm or something?????

Is 6mm better than 6.5 for long distance
