Barrel and Build: Precision That Starts at the Source

The Premier Series concept brings near-custom performance to a production line. The barrel on the BERGARA PREMIER HIGHLANDER is a Premium stainless steel tube honed at Bergara’s facility in Spain, delivering a finished bore that promotes consistent groups. The #5 taper barrel receives a Cerakote Sniper Gray finish at Bergara USA for corrosion resistance and low-reflective appearance suitable for tactical applications.

Action, Bolt, and Extraction Systems

Premier Action Details

The proprietary Bergara PREMIER action is a two-lug system incorporating a floating bolt head to ensure even lug-to-abutment contact — a feature that improves headspace stability and accuracy potential. The action also includes a non-rotating gas shield to reduce fouling transfer during an overpressure event.

Bolt Design for Reliability

The bolt features a cone-shaped nose for smooth feeding and a spring-loaded sliding plate extractor located in front of the lower locking lug for secure extraction. The one-piece stainless bolt body includes a rear pad for a threaded-in bolt handle; the bolt shroud and bolt stop are fully Nitrided for durability and self-lubricating properties, and the bolt handle is Cerakote-finished for added protection.

Trigger and Safety: Practical Features for Real-World Use

In the Highlander, Bergara pairs the action with a TriggerTech trigger using Frictionless Release Technology and integrates a two-position safety within the trigger assembly. That combination allows the bolt handle not to lock in closed position, enabling the operator to unload the rifle while the safety is engaged — a practical safety feature for defensive or range protocols.
