Description
The Bergara Cima Carbon PRC is one of the lightest rifles Bergara has ever built, a sporter-style bolt action that pairs a carbon fiber stock with a CURE carbon barrel. This configuration (Bergara model B14SM1209CF, UPC 043125017850) is chambered in 6.5 PRC with a 20-inch threaded barrel and Omni muzzle brake, a Sniper Gray Cerakote action and an M5 hinged floorplate, and it weighs about 5.9 pounds.
Bergara Cima Carbon PRC Overview
Hunters who love the balance of a classic sporter rifle no longer have to choose between that feel and a lightweight hunting rifle. The Bergara Cima Carbon PRC was engineered with modern materials and manufacturing to shed ounces without giving up accuracy or reliability, and it carries Bergara’s sub-MOA accuracy guarantee with quality factory ammunition.
RTM Carbon Sporter Stock and Mini-Chassis
The stock is made through a resin transfer molding process that produces a 100 percent carbon fiber shell weighing about 18 ounces. Inside, an SMC carbon mini-chassis gives the action a solid, repeatable bedding platform and adds stiffness without extra weight. The black finish with gray sponge accents offers a secure grip in rain and cold.
CURE Carbon Barrel With Omni Brake
Bergara’s CURE barrel solved the old carbon barrel problem of inconsistency by managing heat between the steel liner and carbon sleeve, so it stays straight, stiff and accurate shot after shot. The No. 6 taper is threaded 5/8×24 and ships with the Omni muzzle brake, which tames recoil in a rifle this light. The same threads accept a suppressor.
Extra Reach From the 6.5 PRC
The 6.5 PRC drives long 6.5mm bullets roughly 200 to 300 feet per second faster than the 6.5 Creedmoor, extending effective range on deer, sheep and mule deer with moderate recoil. It fits a short action, and the 1:8 twist stabilizes heavy 140 to 156 grain bullets.
Setup and Care
Pair the rifle with a compact, lightweight scope and solid rings to keep the whole package trim, then zero at 100 yards and record drops at several distances with the load you plan to hunt with. After a wet day, wipe the rifle down, run a dry patch through the bore and let it air out of the case overnight. Check the action screws and scope mounts before every season.

Before You Buy
A rifle this light recoils more than a heavier gun in the same chambering, even with the brake installed, and a muzzle brake is loud for the shooter and anyone nearby. No scope, base or rings are included.
Who It Is For
The Bergara Cima Carbon PRC fits sheep, mule deer and backcountry hunters who count every ounce and want flat-shooting reach with moderate recoil.
