Description
Carbon fiber rifles are everywhere these days, but plenty of them shave weight in ways that hurt how the gun shoots. The Cima CF takes a smarter route. Bergara built it around an RTM carbon fiber sporter stock, made with a resin transfer molding process that squeezes out excess resin so you get a stock that weighs around 18 ounces yet stays remarkably stiff. Grab the fore-end and push, and it barely moves, which is something no injection-molded polymer stock can claim. Inside, an SMC carbon mini chassis gives the action a solid, repeatable bedding surface without piling weight back on. The result is the lightest rifle in the entire B-14 family, right around 6 pounds and 40 inches overall.
A 25 Creedmoor Built for Real Distance
The 25 Creedmoor chambering is where this rifle gets interesting. The 20 inch CURE carbon fiber barrel runs a fast 1:7.5 twist, which is exactly what you need to stabilize the heavy, high-BC .25 caliber bullets this cartridge was designed around. That combination gives you flat trajectories and strong retained energy at ranges where older quarter-bores run out of steam, all in a package light enough to carry up a ridge without complaint. The muzzle comes threaded 5/8×24 with an Omni brake installed, so recoil on this featherweight stays mild and you can spot your own hits.
Cima CF Details That Matter in the Field
Feeding comes from a 4 round internal magazine with a hinged M5 floorplate, so unloading at the truck is quick and there is no detachable mag to lose in the snow. The spiral fluted bolt cycles smooth, the Bergara Performance Trigger breaks clean and adjusts to your liking, and a simple two-position safety keeps operation intuitive. The receiver is drilled and tapped for Remington 700 pattern bases, so mounting glass is about as easy as it gets. Bergara even includes quarter inch spacers to adjust length of pull for a proper fit.
Why the Bergara Cima CF Earns Its Spot
This is the rifle for the hunter who counts ounces but refuses to give up accuracy. Black metalwork over a grey sponge-pattern carbon stock keeps it looking as sharp as it shoots.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is 25 Creedmoor and why choose it in the Cima CF?
The 25 Creedmoor is essentially the 6.5 Creedmoor case necked down to .25 caliber, built from the ground up for modern high-BC bullets. The Cima CF's fast 1:7.5 twist barrel stabilizes those long, heavy-for-caliber projectiles, giving you a flat-shooting cartridge with mild recoil that holds up well at extended range. It is a great fit for deer, antelope, and open-country hunting.
How much does the Bergara Cima CF weigh?
This rifle comes in right around 6 pounds bare, making it the lightest model in Bergara's B-14 lineup. The RTM carbon fiber stock alone weighs about 18 ounces, and the CURE carbon fiber barrel trims more weight up front. That leaves plenty of budget for a quality scope while keeping your full setup comfortable to pack all day.
Does the Cima CF use a detachable magazine?
No, it feeds from a 4 round internal magazine with a hinged M5 floorplate. That keeps the bottom of the rifle slim and snag-free, and there is no magazine to drop or lose in the field. Unloading is quick, just pop the floorplate and the rounds drop out.
What scope bases fit the Bergara Cima CF in 25 Creedmoor?
The receiver is drilled and tapped for Remington 700 pattern bases, which is about the most widely supported footprint in the industry. Any quality short action Rem 700 rail or ring set will work. That gives you a huge range of mounting options from just about every optics maker out there.
