Description
A .300 Win Mag that weighs about as much as a lot of rimfire rifles used to. That is the whole idea behind the Bergara Cima Pro, and it is not a gimmick. Bergara built this rifle with carbon technology running from the buttpad to the muzzle, using an autoclave curing process on the stock that packs the carbon fiber so tight it does not need a mini-chassis or bedding block. The action mates directly to the carbon structure, which trims weight while keeping everything locked down for consistent accuracy. Magnum versions like this one come in around 5.75 pounds, which is remarkable for a rifle pushing this much cartridge.
What Sets the Cima Pro Apart
The heart of the rifle is Bergara's Premier action, machined from 416 stainless steel and skeletonized with lightening cuts and a widened ejection port to shave every ounce possible. It runs a spiral-fluted bolt with a smooth, light cycle, and all the external metal wears Cerakote in Sniper Gray for real weather protection in the backcountry. Up front, the 22 inch CURE carbon fiber barrel uses a patent-pending weave with stainless strands embedded in the carbon to pull heat away from the bore, so your point of impact stays put as the barrel warms. The muzzle is threaded and ships with a brake installed, which takes real bite out of the .300 Win Mag's recoil in a rifle this light.
Field Ready Details on the Bergara Cima Pro
A TriggerTech trigger delivers a crisp, clean break you can adjust to your liking, and the hinged floorplate holds three rounds of magnum ammo with M5-compatible bottom metal. Scope mounting is simple since Premier actions use the familiar Remington 700 base pattern with 8×40 screws. Bergara backs the Cima Pro with the same MOA accuracy guarantee as the rest of the Premier line, so you are not trading precision for pack weight. For elk timber, sheep country, or anywhere the truck is a long walk behind you, this rifle earns its spot on your shoulder.

Frequently Asked Questions
How is the Cima Pro different from the Bergara Cima CF?
The Cima Pro is the step-up model in Bergara's Premier line. Instead of the B-14 action, it runs a skeletonized 416 stainless Premier action with lightening cuts, and the stock is autoclave-cured rather than resin transfer molded. That process is rigid and precise enough that the action beds directly to the carbon fiber with no mini-chassis needed, and it comes with a TriggerTech trigger instead of a standard 700-style trigger.
Does the Bergara Cima Pro use detachable magazines?
No, it feeds from a hinged floorplate that holds three rounds in .300 Win Mag. The bottom metal is M5-compatible, so the platform follows a widely supported footprint. Most hunters prefer the floorplate setup on a mountain rifle anyway since there is no magazine to rattle or lose in the field.
What scope mounts fit the Cima Pro?
Bergara Premier actions use the Remington 700 scope base pattern with 8×40 screws, so mounting options are everywhere. Any quality 700-pattern long action base or rail will work. Just make sure whatever you buy uses 8×40 screws rather than the smaller 6x48s found on some older bases.
Is a .300 Win Mag this light rough on the shoulder?
It would be without help, but the factory brake on the threaded muzzle does a lot of the heavy lifting, and the carbon fiber stock absorbs recoil better than you would expect. It is comfortable enough for practice sessions, and in the field you will never notice recoil on game. The weight savings on a long hike are well worth it.
