Bergara Premier Cima Pro
Bergara Premier Cima Pro A rifle built not just to perform, but to inspire
The PREMIER CIMA PRO is much more than a lightweight hunting rifle: it is the embodiment of Bergara’s highest standards of performance, innovation, and craftsmanship. Built entirely with carbon technology through an advanced autoclave curing process that extends from the stock to the barrel, it achieves an exceptional balance between strength and weight, ensuring rigidity, consistency, and lasting reliability.
AUTOCLAVE CARBON FIBER STOCK
At the core of the CIMA PRO lies its autoclave-cured carbon fiber stock, a technology that achieves the highest possible ratio between fiber and resin to deliver unmatched performance in terms of strength-to-weight. The result is an exceptionally lightweight yet incredibly rigid platform, offering superior recoil absorption, consistent accuracy, and extreme resistance to impact, temperature changes, and harsh environmental conditions
BERGARA CURE® CARBON BARREL
The perfect mating of carbon and steel. Bergara cured the carbon barrel problem of inconsistency by getting steel and carbon to perfectly work together by managing heat. CURE® Barrels are uniquely optimized both mechanically and thermodynamically via a proprietary, patent-pending, carbon weave with embed stainless strands that move heat. Every aspect of the design was optimize to yield an ultralight, stiff, straight, rugged barrel, shot after shot.
