Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Single Shots Bergara 9mm

Not sure what it's good for but can get reasonable accuracy out of a pistol round.

Both of these shoot well, left is Winchester BEB 147gn factory, right is a handload using Speer 147gn Gold Dot:

Weird looking rifle:

Cool! Check out the lettuce protector threads at;

After checking, the lettuce protector threads are found under the plinkers hollow threads.

Interesting. Here those single shots are marketed as CVA rifles, with Bergara handling the barrels. I cut down a 7mm-08 to 16" and it is a funny-looking little thing when the can is not installed.

I'll have to dig around there.

I hadn't had much luck accuracy wise using ready rolled cast projectiles, but might need to look back into it.

The Winchester factory 147gn loads are around the speed of sound, or just over, but my reloads are adjusted to be mostly under the speed of sound. Makes a little bit of a difference for me to keep my reloads under.

The Hornady XTPs or Speer Gold Dots both shoot well and next I want to find out how well they expand at the various distances (velocities) out to 200yds.

I took it out hunting a little while back but never got the chance to test it on any mobile ballistic testing media (ie rabbits or pigs).

That's pretty cool.
