Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Rimfires Bergara BXR Carbon

Anyone have any experience with this rifle? Good or bad? I haven’t owned a semi auto since I sold my marlin model 60 15 years ago. I have only ran bolt guns since then and I like the way this little rifle looks. Any info is much appreciated!

I'm looking at one as well. The question I have is how finicky is it regarding ammo? I mostly use Winchester Power Points in my Marlin 60 and Ruger 77/22 but wonder whether they will work in the BXR.

I have one and it’s not too finicky with ammo. 40 grain Eley (white box) ammo shoots great. Great trigger. Nice weight. One thing I will note is the chamber is VERY tight and is hard to close bolt at times. If it weren’t for that, I’d give it a 9.5 out of 10.
