I bought I Bergara BXR rifle for $584. It has a thick carbon fiber 16.5 inch barrel, plastic stock, match trigger. The action is a near copy of a 1022. The 30MOA base is part of the receiver. My hope is that I can sight it in to hit point of aim, point of contact at 25 or 50 yds. I might want to shoot out to about 100yd also. I put on a 2x7 Vortex crossfire scope to take to the range tomorrow. I thought the base could be removed and a standard base put on it until I paid for it. Will post my sight in results.
