Bergara Rifles Bpla Premier Action 416 Stainless Steel Rem 700

The Bergara Rifles Bpla Premier Action is a precision rifle action built for shooters and gunsmiths serious about custom rifles and long-range builds. Machined from 416 stainless steel and manufactured in the USA, this action is engineered to drop into most Remington 700–style stocks and chassis, giving you a solid foundation whether you're assembling a hunting rifle, a competition gun, or a precision range build.

What sets the Bpla apart is its attention to detail in the small things that matter: a spiral-fluted bolt body, enlarged bolt handle, dual ejector system, and a sliding plate extractor that you can count on in the field or on the bench. The action accepts standard Remington 700 triggers, so you have flexibility in tuning your trigger pull to your preference. If you're familiar with the Rem 700 ecosystem—thousands of smiths and gunsmiths are—you'll find this action straightforward to work with and compatible with the accessories and stocks you already know.

Because it features a magnum bolt face with a .540" diameter, this action is built to handle larger cartridges and magnum-class loads. The scope mount pattern follows the industry-standard Remington 700 layout with 8-40 screw threads, meaning you can use any optics mount or base designed for that specification. The raw stainless finish is clean and ready for whatever protective coating or Cerakote treatment you choose during your build.

If you're planning a custom rifle project and want a domestic action that blends traditional Rem 700 compatibility with solid craftsmanship, the Bergara Premier Action is built to earn its place on your gunsmith's bench.
